Abstract

Forty patients with Parkinson's disease without mental deterioration who were scheduled for ventroposterolateral (VPL) pallidotomy were randomly selected for retrospective stereotactic magnetic resonance image (MRI) analysis. The preoperative MRI study was performed on a 1.0-T MRI machine with a three-dimensional gradient-echo sequence. The MRI analysis was focused on five consecutive 2 mm thick axial slices without gap and parallel to the intercommissural line, starting from the level of the foramen of Monro and continuing in a ventral direction. Lacunar cysts of varying sizes (4-424 mm(3)) were seen at least in one hemisphere of all patients. The cysts had a clear dominance in posteroventral regions of the lateral-most pallidal regions (GP) and posteroventral regions of the putamen (PUT). No statistical correlation was found be-tween the number or volume of the cysts and the sex, age, or duration of illness of the patients. Patients with predominantly left-sided clinical symptoms had a concentration of the cysts in the left GP, whereas those with predominantly right-sided symptoms had cysts significantly larger and more frequent in the right than the left GP. The cysts did not seem to affect the clinical outcome of pallidotomy. The authors think striatopallidal cysts develop from dilated perivascular spaces of the lenticulostriate vessels in the posteroventral regions of the GP and PUT. They are not pathognomonic for PD, but they may play some role in lateralization of the clinical symptoms in this classically asymmetric condition.

Abstract

A review of stereotactic medial pallidotomy of the 1950s in five neurosurgical centers is presented. The surgical technique varied from one center to the other. The results of surgery, however, seemed to be quite equal, being positive in 70-90% of the patients. The surgical mortality ranged from 0 to 13%. Behavioral complications were adequately analyzed and reported from one center only and published by three independent neurologists. The side effects included drowsiness (12%), confusion (13.6%), mental deterioration (5%), memory deficit (13.6%), and dysphasia (7.5-24%, the rate depending on the concomitant brain atrophy). Among permanent side effects, 5% of the patients presented with a mild postoperative mental deterioration, whereas 13.6% had a severe memory deficit. In the four other centers, the results and side effects were analyzed only by the surgeons and were more biased. A comparison of the results and complications between Leksell's early medial pallidotomy of 1951-1957 and recent medial pallidotomies of the 1990s from two centers showed that 40 years ago Leksell had at least as good results as, and less serious complications than, two representative neurosurgeons of today. Even when positive clinical results of GPi pallidotomy have recently been reported from several centers, the patients seem to have improved relatively little, the dyskinesias excepted, and the rate of side effects has been quite high. The author is afraid that medial pallidotomy will soon be abandoned as a method of choice in the surgical treatment of Parkinson's disease, as in fact happened 40 years ago. One should look for better surgical alternatives and targets outside of the medial pallidum.

Abstract

Lars Leksell performed posteroventral pallidotomies in 123 parkinsonian patients from 1958 through 1962. This previously unpublished series was analyzed by the present author 40 years later. The analysis was based on a number of old radiographs that were found accidentally as well as the available hospital notes. After pallidotomy, Leksell had left metal markers in the brain to illustrate the lesion site. Superimposition of the markers on modern MRI scans of patients with similar-sized heads shows a high degree of accuracy of Leksell’s pallidotomy.

Abstract

Ventroposterolateral pallidotomy was used in the surgical treatment of 259 patients suffering from intractable Parkinson's disease. Pallidotomy was equally effective against tremor, rigor, bradykinesia, and the L-dopa-induced dyskinesias. The effect of surgery seemed to be long-lasting, and side effects were rare. The author believes that the beneficial effect of pallidotomy is based on interruption of striopallidal and pallidosubthalamic pathways.

Abstract

The possibility of obtaining a selective effect on different trigeminal branches by glycerol rhizotomy was studied in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia. Transcutaneous electrical stimulation was used to quantify sensory impairment. An attempt was made to direct the neurotoxic effect by maintaining the patient's head in different positions during and after glycerol injection. The amount of glycerol injected varied according to the estimated size of the trigeminal cistern and/or to which branch that was involved. The study demonstrated a good selective effect on the ophthalmic branch, less selective on the maxillary, and a poorly selective effect on the mandibular branch. However, the clinical result following glycerol rhizotomy was equal regardless of the affected trigeminal branch.

Abstract

A new technique for fractionated stereotactic irradiation of intracranial lesions is described. The treatment is based on a versatile, non-invasive interface for stereotactic localization of the brain target imaged by computed tomography (CT), angiography or magnetic resonance tomography (MRT), and subsequent repetitive stereotactic irradiation of the target using a linear accelerator. The fractionation of the stereotactic irradiation was intended to meet the requirements of the basic principles of radiobiology. The radiophysical evaluation using phantoms, and the clinical results in a small number of patients, demonstrated a good reproducibility between repeated positionings of the target in the isocenter of the accelerator, and a high degree of accuracy in the treatment of brain lesions.

Abstract

The objective of this case report was to assess the effect of anterior capsulotomy for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in 2 patients beyond extremes of age ranges of published radiofrequency capsulotomy. The youngest patient developed OCD at age 10 with increasing symptoms of tension and worry. The symptoms were refractory to medications and behavioral therapy. He underwent anterior capsulotomy at age 18. The older patient was 64 at the time of surgery. His OCD began about age 17 with checking and counting rituals. His obsessions extended into other areas such as fear of injuring people while driving. His work performance was greatly compromised. Despite medication trials his rituals and obsessions intensified. After 47 years of severe symptoms he underwent surgery. The youngest patient returned to high school full-time and graduated. He was able to read and comprehend without obsessing about the meaning of words. His thinking and behavior became symptom free and he married 4.5 years after surgery. His score on the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS) after surgery on no medication is zero. The older patient improved gradually without medication. He could play with and touch his grandchildren for the first time. He could drive a car again and his Y-BOCS dropped from 30 preoperatively to 8. Twenty-four months after surgery he is essentially free of obsessions, compulsions and anxiety. We conclude that treatment-refractory OCD may be alleviated by anterior radiofrequency capsulotomy in the young and the old patient. This study expands the documented age range of response from 18 to 64.

Abstract

Recent laboratory experiments have produced increasing evidence that nigral-striatal dopamine deficiency causes an inhibitory hyperactivity in the medial globus pallidus (MGP), where it freezes the initiation of movement and thus causes bradykinesia, rigidity and tremor. Surgical lesions in the ventroposterolateral (VPL) pallidum in man not only improve the parkinsonian bradykinesia, but also the tremor, rigidity, and the L-dopa-induced dyskinesias disappear or diminish. The present study shows that VPL pallidotomy improves several psychomotor functions, such as walking speed and manual dexterity. Right-sided VPL thalamotomy also increases the speed and accuracy in verbal performance. Ventrolateral thalamotomy increases bradykinesia. The findings support the concept that the parkinsonian symptoms in man develop in the MGP. Intact pathways from MGP via thalamus to the premotor and motor cortex seem necessary for normal motor functioning. The author also discusses the mechanisms of pallidotomy and thalamotomy.

Abstract

In the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia, the possibility of obtaining a selective effect on different trigeminal branches by glycerol rhizotomy was studied. Transcutaneous electrical stimulation was used to quantify sensory impairment. An attempt was made to obtain a localized neurotoxic effect of the glycerol on the different trigeminal branches by keeping the patient’s head in different positions during and for one hour after glycerol injection. The amount of glycerol injected varied according to the estimated size of the trigeminal cistern and/or to which branch that was involved. The study demonstrated a highly selective effect on the ophthalmic branch, less selective on the maxillary, and a low selective effect on the mandibular branch. However, the clinical results were equal regardless of the affected trigeminal division.

Abstract

Stereotactic ventroposterolateral pallidotomy in 46 parkinsonian patients resulted in a complete or almost complete and long-lasting relief of rigidity and hypokinesia in 91% of the patients. Good tremor effect was obtained in 80% of them. The L-dopa-induced dyskinesias, gait and speech improved in most patients. Complications were observed in 7 cases after 51 pallidotomies, i.e. 14% (partial homonymous hemianopia in 6 and transient dysphasia and facial weakness in 1). We belive that the good effect of surgery is based on interruption of some striopallidal or subthala-mopallidal pathways.

Abstract

The relation between postoperative sensory deterioration and surgical outcome in 54 patients treated by retrogasserian glycerol rhizotomy for trigeminal neuralgia was studied. The facial sensibility was assessed one day and three months postoperatively. Thresholds for perception and pain were determined quantitatively using transcutaneous electrical stimulation and clinically by light touch and pinprick tests. At a follow-up one year after surgery there was no significant difference in pain relief between patients who did show and patients who did not show sensory deterioration at the one day or three months evaluations. Nevertheless, there was a tendency for higher recurrence rate in patients with mild or no sensory disturbance.

Abstract

Twenty patients with intractable obsessive-compulsive neurosis were operated under local anesthesia. Each patient had a lesion produced in 1 of the 4 brain targets: anterior internal capsule, rostral cingulum, middle cingulum, and genu of the corpus callosum. Before destructive permanent lesions were produced, the target area was stimulated electrically. Stimulation gave subjective or objective reactions in 30% of the patients: diminished anxiety, 3 patients; increased anxiety, 1 patient, and motor responses, 2 patients. None experienced an obsessive reaction to stimulation. The clinical effect of surgery was usually good.

Abstract

A noninvasive adapter for stereotaxis guided by computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, which was originally developed for morphological (tumour biopsy) surgery, has also been used for functional stereotaxis (thalamotomy, cingulotomy, hypothalamotomy, dentatotomy, etc.), for stereotactic angiography and for external stereotactic irradiation of brain tumours with a conventional linear accelerator. In addition, it has been applied to the location of subcortical brain tumours for open surgery. Recently, the stereoadapter has been supplied with a phantom base, which permits percutaneous tumour biopsy and ventriculostomy without a stereotactic frame.

Abstract

Intracerebral pulsatile impedance was compared with the bipolar rheoencephalogram (REG) and extracranial subcutaneous tissue impedance. The investigations were carried out in man during stereotaxic surgery or through implanted steel wire electrodes. The following observations were made. 1. 1. The timing of the intracerebral impedance wave varied slightly in different parts of the brain, but it differed clearly from that of the REG wave: its descending phase started later than that of the REG and lasted almost twice as long. REG and extracranial impedance waves resembled each other in timing. 2. 2. The percentage amplitude of the intracerebral impedance wave was 20–50 times as large as that of the REG and extracranial impedance. 3. 3. The intracerebral base line impedance normally oscillated with a frequency of 2–3/min, while the base line impedance in REG and extracranial impedance was very constant. 4. 4. Intracranial hypertension was associated with a delayed, paradoxical, intracerebral impedance wave, whereas the REG and extracerebral impedance were normal in the same patients. All these findings constitute strong evidence that REG does not reflect intracerebral impedance and circulation.

Abstract

✓ Sixteen neurosurgeons were requested to define their preferred surgical target for treatment of parkinsonism. The scattergram thus obtained showed a great variability among surgeons. Although there was a concentration of targets in the ventrolateral (VL) nucleus of the thalamus, there was a separation by as much as 6 to 7 mm between targets. One surgeon placed the lesion in the subthalamic white matter below the VL nucleus, and two placed it outside the thalamus in the pallidothalamic pathways in Forel's field. It is assumed that successful surgery interrupts the pallidothalamocortical pathways that transmit tremor and rigidity impulses, regardless of which part of the pathways is severed.

Abstract

A portable constant current electrical stimulator with bipolar felt disk electrodes was developed for quantitative assessment of cutaneous sensibility. The new method was used in the measurement of thresholds for perception and pain in healthy volunteers. The mean values of the threshold for perception in different areas of the body varied between 1.0 and 2.0 mA (S.D. +/- 0.2-0.6 mA) and those of the threshold for pain between 2.5 and 4.3 mA (S.D. +/- 0.5-1.7 mA). There was no difference between the left and the right side. The interindividual range of the perception threshold varied from 0.4 to 3.0 mA and that of the pain threshold from 1.2 to 6.0 mA. Within a limited area of the body the reproducibility of the measurements was high both for the thresholds for perception and for pain. Anterolateral cordotomy caused a marked rise in the threshold for pain in the analgesic area of the body, whereas the threshold for perception did not change. It is hypothesized that the threshold for perception reflects an activation of A beta fibers and the threshold for pain an activation of A delta fibers. The new method is considered to be valuable in clinical neurology and neurosurgery.

Abstract

A patient is reported in whom deep musculoskeletal pain apparently blocked transmission from nociceptive cutaneous fibers in an adjacent region. When the deep musculoskeletal pain was abolished with local anesthesia, the cutaneous hypalgesia disappeared. Naloxone did not influence the hypalgesia. Possible mechanisms are discussed.

Abstract

A new technique is described which permits all types of stereotactic surgery to be done without ventriculography, with CT guidance only. The present series consists of 42 patients who underwent thalamotomy, posteromedial hypothalamotomy, dentatotomy or anterior capsulotomy for movement disorders, chronic pain, spasmodic torticollis or psychiatrie illness. Postoperative lesion control with repeated CT showed that the method was accurate. The clinical results were considered to be better than those after previous ventriculography-guided surgery. It is concluded that ventriculography is no longer needed for stereotactic neurosurgery.

Abstract

A new, versatile adapter for computed tomography-guided stereotaxis is presented. The instrument consists of a light aluminum frame, which by means of a nasion support and two ear plugs is fixed to the patient's head. Reproducibility of repeated fixations is very high. The adapter is fitted to most stereotactic frames and can be used in all adult patients. Comparison between computed tomography- and ventriculography-guided determinations of thalamic targets showed a mean difference of 0.6 and 0.7 mm for the x and y coordinates, respectively. The z coordinates seldom showed any measurable difference. We now perform all types of stereotactic neurosurgery (tumor biopsy, implantation of depth electrodes, thalamotomy, dentatotomy, cingulotomy, etc.) with computed tomography guidance only. The short-term results in a small number of patients have been at least as good as after conventional ventriculography-guided surgery. In addition to open stereotactic surgery, the adapter is also suitable for external stereotactic irradiation of intracranial targets with a linear accelerator.

Abstract

Nineteen patients with tic douloureux were treated with glycerol injection in the trigeminal cistern. Facial sensibility was measured with an electrical stimulator one day before and one day after the glycerol treatment. The thresholds for perception and pain, and the maximal pain tolerance rose by about 50% (p less than 0.01, 0.01, and 0.001, respectively). The hypaesthesia and hypalgesia were most marked just below the eye, whereas the mandibular division showed only slight sensory impairment. In 13 patients a follow-up sensimetry study was done 1-7 months after surgery. Thirteen patients became completely free of pain and one almost completely free from pain (74%). Two had no pain relief. Twelve patients had no subjective complaints of the treatment. Three reported on dysaesthesiae (16%) over the previously painful area. Seven patients (37%) had subjective sensations of diminished or altered sensibility: numbness and hypalgesia in the face. Corneal hypaesthesia was recorded in ten patients (53%). Glycerol has a non-specific neurotoxic effect which is equal for tactile and nociceptive fibres. Sensory impairment may be a conditio sine qua non for a good clinical result.

Abstract

✓ In 1976, Fasano, et al., described a new technique of posterior rhizotomy for treatment of spasticity. They stimulated electrically fascicles of the posterior roots in spastic patients and found that some fascicles responded to stimulation with tonic muscle contractions. They cut these fascicles, preserving those with a weaker or no reaction. The present authors have used a fairly similar technique in the treatment of eight patients with spasticity of the legs and one patient with spasticity of the arm: all fascicles of the posterior roots T12-S1 and C6–8, respectively, were stimulated electrically during surgery under general anesthesia. Approximately 60% to 80% of the fascicles responded to stimulation with tonic muscle jerks, and only these fascicles were cut. All nine patients showed a good reduction of spasticity. The residual cutaneous and joint sensation remained unchanged. Motility of the limbs usually improved.

Abstract

A noninvasive adapter for CT-, MRI- and angiography-guided stereo-taxis had originally been developed for morphological (tumor biopsy) surgery. Because of its high accuracy it has also been used for functional stereotaxis (e.g., thalamotomy, cingulotomy, hypothalamotomy, dentatotomy) and for external stereotactic irradiation of brain tumors and arteriovenous malformations with a conventional linear accelerator. Additionally, it has been used for locating subcortical brain tumors for open surgery. Recently, the adapter, supplied with a phantom base, has been used for percutaneous tumor biopsy and ventriculostomy without a stereotactic frame.

Abstract

The author describes a new, fully stereotactic instrument for the percutaneous treatment of tic douloureux. The principle is to place the instrument in such a position around the patient's head that the foramen ovale lies at the midpoint of a spherical system consisting of a cylinder part and a 90° arch with an electrode carrier. The foramen can then be reached from a suitable bone-free direction, either through the cheek or inframandibularly. The position of the foramen ovale is calculated from lateral and axial radiograms and defined with x, y, and z coordinates. The instrument can also be used for the percutaneous treatment of glossopharyngeal neuralgia.

Abstract

A new, slowly absorbed L-dopa preparation of sustained release-type was used in an open study on 25 Parkinsonian patients. The 24-hour serum concentration was found to be relatively even when three daily doses were used. The average dose was 3.5 g a day. Thirteen patients experienced adverse effects, of which nausea was the most common. Purdue pegboard and electronic measurement of motor reaction times showed that 80 per cent of the patients improved during the test period of 15 weeks. The new preparation was considered to be equal to, or slightly better than, the previous rapidly absorbed L-dopa preparations. The present study confirmed our previous finding that thala-motomized patients benefit from L-dopa less than non-surgical patients.

Abstract

✓ Longitudinal myelotomy at the level of the conus medullaris relieved severe spasticity in eight of nine patients. There was some recurrence of spasticity attributed to inadequate myelotomy. Sensation was impaired by the myelotomy in some patients. Bladder function was temporarily worse in all patients, but in all but one was eventually equal to, or better than, that before surgery.
