Deep brain stimulation (DBS) can be an effective therapy to control motor signs in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). However, subthalamic nucleus (STN) DBS can induce undesirable psychiatric adverse effects, including elevated mood.
We reported a video case of a 73-year-old male implanted with bilateral STN DBS who experienced stimulation-induced elevated mood. A correlation between mood changes and enhanced activation of the ventromedial region in the left STN was observed.
This video case report illustrates STN DBS-induced elevated mood and enhances early symptom recognition for patients and diagnostic awareness for professionals.
深部脑刺激(DBS)可以有效控制帕金森病(PD)患者的运动症状。然而,丘脑底核(STN)DBS 可引起不良的精神副作用,包括情绪升高。
我们报告了一例 73 岁男性双侧 STN-DBS 植入术后出现刺激诱导的情绪升高的视频病例。观察到情绪变化与左 STN 腹内侧区域的增强激活之间存在相关性。
本视频病例报告说明了 STN-DBS 诱导的情绪升高,并增强了患者的早期症状识别和专业人员的诊断意识。
