RESUMEN
Background Traditionally, most centers would use microelectrode recording (MER) to refine targeting in deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery. In recent years, intraoperative imaging (IMG) guided DBS has become an alternative way to verify lead placement. Currently, there is still controversy surrounding the necessity of MER or IMG for DBS. This meta-analysis aims to explore lead accuracy, clinical efficacy and safety between IMG and MER guided DBS for Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library were searched up to Mar, 2021 for studies reporting comparisons between IMG and MER guided DBS for PD. Subgroup analysis was conducted to assess effects of different IMG technology and DBS targeting site. Results Six studies, comprising of 478 patients were included in our analysis. The mean difference between the two implantation techniques in stereotactic accuracy, lead passes per trajectory, improvement% of Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale part III and levodopa equivalent daily dose were −0.45 (95% confidence interval, CI=−1.11 to 0.20), −0.18 (95% CI=−0.41 to 0.06), 3.40 (95% CI=−5.36 to 12.16), and 5.00 (95% CI=−1.40 to 11.39), respectively. No significant differences were observed in each adverse event and operation/procedure time between the two implantation techniques. Conclusions Both IMG and MER guided DBS offered effective control of motor symptoms for PD. Besides, IMG guided is comparable to MER guided DBS, in terms of safety, accuracy and efficiency. It is recommended for each hospital to select DBS guidance technology based on available resources and equipment (AU)
Antecedentes Tradicionalmente, la mayoría de los centros usaban los microelectrodos de registro (microelectrode recording [MER]) para mejorar la orientación en la cirugía mediante la estimulación cerebral profunda (deep brain stimulation [DBS]). En los últimos años, la DBS orientada mediante imágenes intraoperatorias (intraoperative imaging guided [IMG]) se ha convertido en una forma alternativa de verificar la colocación de los electrodos. Hoy en día, todavía existe controversia en torno al uso de MER o IMG para realizar una DBS. Este metaanálisis tiene como objetivo explorar la precisión de los electrodos, la eficacia clínica y la seguridad entre la DBS guiada mediante IMG y MER en el tratamiento de la enfermedad de Parkinson (EP). Métodos Se realizaron búsquedas en PubMed, Embase, Web of Science y Cochrane Library hasta marzo de 2021 para localizar estudios que informasen sobre comparaciones entre la DBS guiada mediante IMG y la guiada mediante MER en la EP. Se realizó un análisis de subgrupos para evaluar los efectos de una tecnología IMG y una ubicación DBS guiada diferentes. Resultados En nuestro análisis hemos incluido seis estudios con 478 pacientes. La diferencia media entre las dos técnicas de implantación en la precisión estereotáctica, los pasos del electrodo por trayectoria, el porcentaje de mejora de la escala unificada de clasificación de la enfermedad de Parkinson, parteIII, y la dosis diaria equivalente de levodopa fueron −0,45 (intervalo de confianza del 95% [IC 95%]: −1,11 a 0,20), −0,18 (IC 95%: −0,41 a 0,06), 3,40 (IC 95%: −5,36 a 12,16) y 5,00 (IC 95%: −1,40 a 11,39), respectivamente. No se observaron diferencias significativas en cada evento adverso y tiempo de operación/procedimiento entre las dos técnicas de implantación (AU)

Introducción: El registro con microelectrodos en la estimulación cerebral profunda (ECP) ha demostrado una gran utilidad. Es posible mejorar su eficiencia caracterizando las propiedades de los potenciales de acción extracelulares (PAE). Pacientes y métodos: Hemos analizado registros de nueve pacientes operados por epilepsia o agresividad bajo anestesia general. Se han determinado las propiedades de los PAE de los núcleos talámicos centromediano, ventral intermedio, ventrocaudal e hipotalámico posteromedial. Resultados: Hemos analizado 706 células talámicas y 142 hipotalámicas. La proporción de tipos celulares resultó específica de cada núcleo celular. El tipo celular más frecuente fue P1P2N1 (59,5%), seguido por N1P1N2 (23,1%). La primera fase del PAE es altamente variable. Las propiedades de las fases del PAE de la misma morfología difieren altamente entre núcleos. Conclusiones: Hemos demostrado que diversos núcleos cerebrales profundos tienen propiedades específicas de la morfología de los PAE. Esto permitirá una mejora en la localización de estos núcleos durante la ECP.(AU)
Introduction: Using microelectrodes for recording purposes in deep brain stimulation (DBS) has proven to be very useful. Their efficiency can be improved by characterising the properties of extracellular action potentials (EAPs). Patients and methods: We analysed the records of nine patients who underwent surgery for epilepsy or aggressiveness under general anaesthesia. The properties of the EAPs of the centromedian, ventral intermediate, ventrocaudal and posteromedial hypothalamic nuclei of the thalamus have been determined. Results: We have analysed 706 thalamic and 142 hypothalamic cells. The proportion of cell types was found to be specific to each cell nucleus. The most frequent cell type was P1P2N1 (59.5%), followed by N1P1N2 (23.1%). The first phase of the EAP is highly variable. The properties of the EAP phases of the same morphology differ greatly from one nucleus to another. Conclusions: We have shown that several deep brain nuclei have properties that are specific to the morphology of the EAPs. This will allow for improved localisation of these nuclei during DBS.(AU)

El láser como alternativa a la cirugía abierta de la vía aérea superior ha venido a modificar la forma de abordaje de las patologías en esta área, pero no deja de ser un procedimiento costoso que no está al alcance de todos los servicios. Por este motivo se han reinventado nuevas formas de abordaje que cumplan los mismos requisitos tanto de la cirugía abierta como con láser pero con un menor coste. Presentamos una serie de 30 casos realizados en un período de 6 años por motivos tanto tumorales como no, en los que se realizaron abordajes cerrados a través de microcirugía con disección mediante microelectrodos. Obteniendo pocas complicaciones y una disminución de la estancia hospitalaria significativa. Con lo cual nos parece una técnica eficiente para abordajes de este tipo.
The laser as an alternative to open surgery of the upper airway has come to change the form of approaching the disease in this area, but it is still an expensive procedure that is not available to all services. For this reason a new ways of approach to meet the same requirements both open as laser but at a lower cost surgery. We present a series of 30 cases performed over a period of 6 years for reasons as much tumor, which closed approaches through microsurgical dissection were performed using microelectrodes. Obtaining few complications and significant decreased hospital stay. Our considerations is it seems an efficient technique for such approaches.

OBJECTIVE: Our objectives were to study the length of multi-unit recordings (MURs) of brain activity in 20 years of movement disorder neurosurgeries and to determine the number of times in which it was necessary for the teams using single-unit recording (SUR) to explore all the electrode tracks in the simultaneously recorded sites (SRS). MATERIAL AND METHOD: This was a retrospective descriptive statistical analysis of MUR length on 4,296 tracks in 952 surgeries. The exclusion criteria were: tracks with fewer than 5 recorded signals, tracks that had a signal length different from the habitual 2s, or there being unusual situations not related to the MUR, as well as the first 20 surgeries of each surgical target. This yielded a total of 3,448 tracks in 805 surgeries. We also determined the number of the total 952 surgeries in which all the tracks in the SURs of the SRS were explored. RESULTS: The mean and its confidence interval (P=.05) of time per MUR track were 5.49±0.16min in subthalamic nucleus surgery, 8.82±0.24min in the medial or internal globus pallidus) and 18.51±1.31min in the ventral intermediate nucleus of the thalamus. For the total sum of tracks per surgery, in 75% of cases the total time was less than 39min in subthalamic nucleus, almost 42min in the medial or internal globus pallidus and less than 1h and 17min in ventral intermediate nucleus of the thalamus. All the tracks in the SUR SRS were explored in only 4.2% of the surgeries. CONCLUSIONS: The impact of MUR on surgical time is acceptable for this guide in objective localization for surgical targets, without having to use several simultaneous electrodes (not all indispensable in most of the cases). Consequently, there is less risk for the patient.
