ABSTRACT
The introduction of continuous high frequency stimulation (deep brain stimulation) into functional neurosurgery has opened up new avenues in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. This new technique expands the therapeutic possibilities available to those patients in whom, over the years, the effectiveness of drug treatment has deteriorated, or severe side effects developed. In the individual case, the decision as to whether to operate is taken on the basis of interdisciplinary cooperation between the care-providing neurologist and the neurosurgeon specialized in this particular field.
