Abstract
Background: Main motor characteristics in Parkinson's disease (PD) include bradykinesia, rigidity, and tremors. With the development of neuromodulation techniques, it has become possible to use deep brain stimulation (DBS) to control the symptoms of PD. However, since the subthalamic nucleus(STN) and globus pallidus interna (GPi) DBS have their own advantages and disadvantages, it is difficult to control symptoms of the patients. It is essential to find new stimulation methods. Case Presentation: A 33-year-old male PD patient with onset at the age of 12 years. The onset of the disease is presented with bradykinesia and progressively developed severe choreic dyskinesia with the use of medications. We then performed a thorough evaluation of the patient and decided to perform bilateral globus pallidus interna combined with subthalamic nucleus variable frequency DBS (bSGC-DBS) implantation, and after 2 years of follow-up the patient's bradykinesia and dyskinesia symptoms and quality of life improved significantly. Conclusions: This is the first case of bSCG-DBS in a PD patient with refractory dyskinesia, and the first report of encouraging results from this clinical condition. This important finding explores multi-electrode and multi-target stimulation for the treatment of dystonia disorders.
