Abstract

A 73-year-old man with Parkinson's disease underwent thalamic stimulation for disabling tremor with excellent results only when stimulation on. Post-mortem neuropathology (7 years postoperatively) revealed 60% cell loss within 0.5 mm of the electrode tip. Tremor improvement was attributable to chronic stimulation, not microthalamotomy.
