summary

Core tip microelectrode guided stereotactic brain surgery, commonly known as "cell knife", is currently recognized as a good way to treat advanced Parkinson's disease in the world. What is the effect of minimally invasive surgery for Parkinson's disease? Let me introduce it to you.

What is the effect of minimally invasive surgery for Parkinson's disease

First of all: the surgical treatment of Parkinson's disease to choose the right time. Parkinson's disease patients with definite diagnosis are suitable for surgical treatment. However, some other chronic brain diseases also show symptoms similar to Parkinson's disease, so it is not easy for early patients to be diagnosed. We should find an experienced neurologist for clinical observation for a period of time, combined with necessary examination means (such as magnetic resonance imaging) and drug treatment, in order to make a clear diagnosis, exclude other diseases, and make clear the cause of functional impairment The main cause of the problem. Only when the preoperative diagnosis is clear, can the effect of operation be guaranteed.

Secondly: Generally speaking, early patients with Parkinson's disease should first take drug treatment. If the effect of drug treatment declines or toxic and side effects appear after a period of time, the disease becomes more difficult to control, surgical treatment should be actively considered at this time.

Finally: more than 80% of the patients received surgery during this period. The operation can completely eliminate the symptoms of tremor, stiffness, inflexibility, tardiness and pain.

matters needing attention

Early treatment is mainly based on drugs, such as amantadine, antam, Madopa, etc. It is worth mentioning that all the drugs for Parkinson's disease can only temporarily control the symptoms, but can not prevent the development of the course. After taking medicine for a period of time, the efficacy of most patients will gradually decline or even be ineffective, or appear obvious toxic and side effects. Therefore, patients with advanced Parkinson's disease need to actively seek surgical treatment.
