Effects of Pneumocephalus on Electrode Location After Deep Brain Stimulation of the Subthalamic Nucleus in Parkinson Disease
Pneumocephalus plays a critical role in electrode displacement during STN-DBS surgery. Minimizing cerebrospinal fluid loss and careful planning of microelectrode recording passages are essential for improving surgical accuracy. Further studies with larger sample sizes and multicenter data are needed to validate these findings and increase their generalizability.
