BACKGROUND: The aim was to assess the effect of deep brain stimulation for secondary hemidystonias associated with focal post-traumatic brain injuries.
METHODS: Four patients underwent deep brain stimulation for the treatment of medically refractory secondary hemidystonia associated with post-traumatic brain injury. Clinical outcome assessments were based on Burke-Fahn-Marsden Dystonia Rating Scale movement and disability scores. Health-related quality of life was assessed using a 36-item short-form general health survey questionnaire administered preoperatively and at the last follow-up visit.
RESULTS: Burke-Fahn-Marsden Dystonia Rating Scale movement scores had improved by 73.2% (range, 38.1-94.1) and disability scores had improved by 75% (range, 60-100) at the 2-year follow-up visit. The health-related quality of life assessment revealed satisfactory results at follow-up, such that body pain, general health, vitality, social functioning, as well as emotional and mental health improved significantly.
CONCLUSIONS: Globus pallidus internus deep brain stimulation can be used to modulate and ameliorate secondary hemidystonia associated with focal post-traumatic brain injury.
