How effective is Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery for treating Parkinson's disease?
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery is highly effective in alleviating the motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. It can significantly reduce tremors, rigidity, and bradykinesia, although it does not cure the disease. For suitable patients, it can greatly improve the quality of life.
Is epilepsy surgery risky?
Epilepsy surgery, like any surgical procedure, carries certain risks. However, with proper patient selection and an experienced surgeon, the benefits often outweigh the risks. This surgery can be highly effective in reducing or even eliminating seizures that are not controlled by medication.
How long does the surgical treatment of brain tumors take?
The duration of surgical treatment for brain tumors depends on the type, size, and location of the tumor. It typically takes between 4 to 12 hours. The surgery may take longer depending on the patient’s condition and the complexity of the tumor.
