The past two decades have revealed substantial benefits of bilateral pallidal deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients with medication-refractory primary dystonia. There is a growing body of evidence now describing not only short-term but also long-term benefits up to 10 years following DBS. These benefits are often sustained, requiring minimal long-term modification. Pallidal programming for dystonia may be complex owing to the gradual onset of benefits and often delayed development of side effects. There is a relative scarcity of evidence-based recommendations for standardized programming methods. This chapter reviews essential factors to consider for appropriate patient selection and discusses strategies for initial and follow-up programming. Finally, the chapter describes the potential short-term and long-term adverse effects, while considering various strategies to mitigate them.
