Deep brain stimulation (DBS) therapy is a continually expanding field of functional neurosurgery for the treatment of movement disorders and neuropathic pain. However, occurrence of adverse events related to implanted hardware cannot be ignored, particularly in patients with dystonic conditions. We report on two such patients who required emergency hospital admission and pulse generator re-implantation following sudden and unexpected cessation of DBS effectiveness resulting from battery failure.
脑深部电刺激(DBS)疗法是一种不断发展的功能性神经外科治疗方法,用于治疗运动障碍和神经病理性疼痛。然而,与植入硬件相关的不良事件不容忽视,尤其是在有肌张力障碍的患者中。我们报告了两例这样的患者,由于电池故障导致 DBS 突然且意外失效,导致疗效丧失,他们需要紧急住院并重新植入脉冲发生器。
