ABSTRACT
Functional neurosurgery encompasses surgical procedures geared towards treating movement disorders (such as Parkinson's disease and essential tremor), drug-resistant epilepsy, and various types of pain disorders. It is one of the most rapidly expanding fields within neurosurgery and utilizes both traditional open surgical methods such as open temporal lobectomy for epilepsy as well as neuromodulation-based treatments such as implanting brain or nerve stimulation devices. This review outlines the role functional neurosurgery plays in treatment of epilepsy, movement disorders, and pain, and how it is being implemented at the University of Missouri by the Department of Neurosurgery.
