Abstract:
In the past 30 years, with the advancement of functional neurosurgery, neuroelectrophysiology and neuroimaging, deep brain stimulation (DBS), as a new tool for the treatment of dyskinesia, has been considered to have underwent the fastest development in this field.Many patients with dyskinesias have significantly improved their main clinical symptoms after treatment with DBS, some of the improvement are even dramatic.Due to its minimally invasive characteristics, reversibility and adjustability, DBS therapy has been increasingly used in the treatment of dystonia in children.Hereditary dystonia is the most common type of dyskinesia in children, and there is no effective treatment yet.Recently, some dyskinesia at home and abroad centers have carried out DBS treatment for pediatric hereditary dystonia and achieved some encouraging results.Now, the effect of DBS in the treatment of hereditary dystonia in children and the main process of DBS treatment were mainly discussed, and shared the experience based on the clinical practices of Multidisciplinary Collaborative Diagnosis and Treatment Center for Children′s Motor Disorders, Peking University First Hospital.
