Medical therapies in patients with Meige syndrome, including botulinum toxin injection, have been limited because of incomplete response or adverse side effects. We evaluated a patient with Meige syndrome who was successfully treated with deep brain stimulation (DBS) in the globus pallidus interna (GPi). This case report and other previous reports suggest that bilateral GPi DBS may be an effective treatment for medically refractory Meige syndrome, without significant adverse effects.
Meige 综合征患者的医学治疗方法,包括肉毒毒素注射,由于反应不完全或不良反应而受到限制。我们评估了一位 Meige 综合征患者,他在内侧苍白球(GPi)接受脑深部电刺激(DBS)治疗后取得了成功。本病例报告和其他先前的报告表明,双侧 GPi-DBS 可能是一种治疗药物难治性 Meige 综合征的有效方法,且没有明显的不良反应。
