Subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation Lead Asymmetry Impacts the Parkinsonian Gait Disorder

BackgroundThe preferable position of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) electrodes is proposed to be located in the dorsolateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) to improve general motor performance. The optimal DBS electrode localization for the post-operative improvement of balance and gait is unknown.MethodsI...
