This chapter reviews the case of a patient with Parkinson disease (PD) who experienced a sustained reduction in symptoms following perioperative intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). The patient, a 55-year-old man, elected to receive deep brain stimulation (DBS) after presenting with PD with rest tremor, bradykinesia, and rigidity. During the implantation operation, the patient suffered a small ICH in the left subthalamic nucleus (STN). Subsequently, he reported a significant improvement in right-side symptoms with the DBS device still in the off state. The case is discussed in detail in this chapter and briefly compared with similar cases that have previously been reported. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging studies done shortly after the ICH occurred are also included.
