Long Term Follow Up

✓ The authors report the results of a long-term follow-up study of the effects of the physiologically defined selective VIM (nucleus ventralis intermedius)-thalamotomy on tremor of Parkinson's disease in 27 patients and essential tremor in 16 patients. The follow-up period ranged from 3.25 to 10 years (mean 6.58 years). In 43 patients a total of 50 operations (including four bilateral operations and three reoperations) were carried out. The early (2 to 4 weeks after surgery) and late effects on the tremors were determined clinically and electromyographically. Fourteen parkinsonian cases were treated with minimal lesions (about 40 cu mm). Their late results were very similar to the early results: in 10, the tremors were completely abolished, three had a slight residual tremor, and one underwent reoperation 3 months after the first surgery. Eleven essential tremor cases were treated with minimal lesions. Six of these tremors were completely abolished, four patients had slight residual tremors, and one patient with a recurrence underwent reoperation 2 years after the initial surgery. In these 23 successful operations with minimal lesions (excluding two cases with reoperation), the tremor was abolished without discernible long-lasting side effects. The other 23 operations on 16 patients with Parkinson's disease (including one reoperation) and on seven with essential tremor (one of whom also had a minimal lesion on the other side) involved relatively large lesions. In this group, the surgery was successful in almost every case. It was concluded that radiographically and physiologically monitored selective VIM-thalamotomy for parkinsonian and essential tremor is effective even when lesioning is minimal. Moreover, the beneficial effect is maintained over a long period of time.

Control Study

✓ Follow-up reviews were carried out on 86 of 103 patients with Parkinson's disease who underwent unilateral or bilateral ventrolateral (VL) thalamotomy in the period from 1964 to 1969. Of these 86 patients, 64 received unilateral surgery, and 22 bilateral surgery. The follow-up periods were at least 10 years from the operation (from the second intervention in cases with bilateral procedures). In the group that received unilateral surgery, no progression after surgery was seen in three of six patients classified preoperatively in Grade I (Hoehn and Yahr's Grade 1), nine of 20 patients in Grade IIa (Hoehn and Yahr's Grade 2), 13 of 23 patients in Grade IIb (Hoehn and Yahr's Grade 3), and six of 15 patients in Grade III (Hoehn and Yahr's Grade 4). In the group that received bilateral surgery, one of three patients in Grade I and one of 11 patients in Grade IIa before the second intervention maintained continuous full social activities for over 10 years after the second surgery without any medication. In addition, eight of 11 patients classified preoperatively in Grade IIa and five of eight patients in Grade IIb seemed to show no progression after the second operation; four of 22 patients stopped taking their medication because of improvement in their symptoms. No patient who received bilateral surgery had progression of the disease to death. Observations suggested the efficacy of thalamic surgery, not only for improvement of motor symptoms but also for reducing progression of the disease, although no control study was made. Thalamotomy is still used to treat Parkinson's disease as an alternative to current medical treatments, such as L-dopa therapy.
