The technique of deep brain stimulation is used to treat patients with various diseases of the central nervous system who are not amenable to conservative therapy, while open interventions in them are associated with a high risk of complications. In the review, we evaluate the efficiency of the deep stimulation of different regions of the brain in some pharmacoresistant forms of diseases.

This article contains a directed overview of the field of neuroengineering and neuroprosthetics. The aim of the article is, however, not to go over introductory material covered elsewhere, but rather to look ahead at exciting areas for likely future development. The BrainGate implant is focussed on in terms of its use as an interface between the Internet and the human nervous system. Sensory prosthetics of different types and deep brain stimulation are considered. Different possibilities with deep brain stimulation are also discussed.

Pathology of extrapyramidal nervous system (EP) is one of the most complex sections of clinical neurology. Specificity of EP disorders accounts for the necessity of specialized assistance to patients with parkinsonism, tremor, dystonias, tics and other hyperkinesias. The article gives an account of a 4-year experience of Center for Extrapyramidal pathology work, as well as its problems and achievements. A total of 1 738 patients with different motor disorders (total of 4 301 consultations) were examined in the center for the whole period of its existence. Scientific research work is carried on as well. On the basis of the experience it was found out that neurologists. Сome across considerable difficulties in making diagnosis and choice of extrapyramidal diseases treatment. We are planning to expand the use of modern techniques in diagnosis and treatment (including botulotoxin injections, deep brain stimulation), identification of epidemiology of some extrapyramidal disorders in Kazan city.
