Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a neurosurgical technique in which electrodes are implanted into patient's brain. Although, patients have to undergo an invasive surgery, it is growing field of neurosurgery. DBS proved to be cost-effective in a treatment of certain severe neurological diseases as Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, dystonia[1] or epilepsy [2]. The treatment of other neurological and psychiatric diseases as OCD, depression or chronic pain, is examined intensively.[1]

DBS is not a cure. None of the diseases to which is used are curable at the moment. It could however, eliminate symptoms of the diseases, which negatively affected the lives of the patients.[3] DBS is used in medical devices, which are on prescription, the use for cognitive enhancement is highly limited. However, certain cases of possible cognitive enhancement were also reported.[4]

Historical overview

Purpose

Important Dates

  • about 5000 B.C. the first trephinations were conducted in South America.[5]
  • 1960s - the first attempts of deep brain stimulation were conducted,[5] they were abandoned due to high mortality rate[6]
  • 1987 - the research on deep brain stimulation of the thalamic nucleus ventralis intermedius to treat symptoms of Parkinson's disease was published[7]
  • 1993 - deep brain stimulation of subthalamic nucleus was introduced as a treatment of Parkinson's disease.[8]
  • 1997 - deep brain stimulation was approved as a treatment of Parkinson's disease by FDA.[9]
