"Surgical Interventions in Parkinson’s Disease: Advanced Options to Regain Quality of Life"

Surgery is considered when symptoms are severe or poorly controlled by medication. The main surgical treatments are:

Lesion Surgery: Involves creating small targeted lesions in brain areas controlling movement to reduce symptoms. 

They are: 

Pallidotomy: Targets the Globus pallidus to reduce symptoms.

Thalamotomy: Targets the thalamus, mainly for tremor control, but less commonly used.

Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS): The most common and advanced surgical option. Electrodes are implanted in specific brain regions (Thalamus, Globus pallidus internus, or Subthalamic nucleus) and connected to a chest-implanted battery device. DBS modulates abnormal brain signals to improve motor symptoms without destroying brain tissue. It can reduce medication needs and improve quality of life.

Neural grafting or tissue transplants are under research, not widely available as it's still experimental.

DBS Surgery significantly improves the lifestyle.
