When medications are insufficient or cause significant side effects, surgical interventions may be considered. These procedures are typically more invasive but can offer substantial relief for certain patients. DBS is a widely used surgical treatment for Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, and dystonia. It involves implanting electrodes into specific areas of the brain. These electrodes deliver electrical impulses that help regulate abnormal brain activity, thereby reducing symptoms. Thalamotomy and Pallidotomy are older surgical techniques that involve destroying small areas of the brain responsible for causing tremors or other involuntary movements. While effective, they are less commonly used today due to the advancements in DBS.
