Subthalamic nucleus (STN) stimulation improves motor disability and quality of life in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). Short-term mortality is low, but little is known about long-term mortality. We assessed mortality and causes of death in 171 consecutive PD patients treated by STN stimulation. Surgery was performed after a median lagtime of 13 years from PD onset at a median age of 57 years. The median follow-up after surgery was 41 months. Sixteen patients died 8 to 83 months after neurosurgery. Poorer cognitive function was the only predictive factor for mortality (standardized mortality ratio = 2.9; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.6-4.7; P < 0.0001). Based on a historical comparison of 118 operated patients with 39 nonoperated patients from a different population, survival among operated patients was not better (hazard ratio = 1.2; 95% CI, 0.7-2.1).
丘脑底核(STN)刺激可改善晚期帕金森病(PD)患者的运动功能障碍和生活质量。短期死亡率较低,但关于长期死亡率的情况却知之甚少。我们评估了171例接受STN刺激治疗的连续性PD患者的死亡率及死亡原因。手术在PD发病后中位延迟13年、中位年龄57岁时进行。术后中位随访时间为41个月。16例患者在神经外科手术后8至83个月死亡。较差的认知功能是唯一的死亡预测因素(标准化死亡率比=2.9;95%置信区间[CI],1.6 - 4.7;P<0.0001)。基于对118例手术患者与来自不同人群的39例未手术患者的历史对照,手术患者的生存率并无改善(风险比=1.2;95%CI,0.7 - 2.1)。
