ABSTRACT
There has been a long history of lesioning procedures to treat tremor associated with both essential tremor (ET) and Parkinson's disease (PD). These include radiofrequency (RF) thalamotomy, gamma knife radiosurgical (GKRS) thalamotomy, and magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS). In this review, we summarize the clinical studies of lesioning procedures for tremor focusing on these ablative therapies for ET and tremor-predominant PD (TDPD). We then consider clinical treatment variables that influence decision-making regarding ablative therapies versus consideration of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and conclude with ongoing and future studies. This article is part of the Special Issue "Tremor" edited by Daniel D. Truong, Mark Hallett, and Aasef Shaikh.
