Dentate Nucleus as Target for Deep Brain Stimulation in Dystono-Dyskinetic Syndromes

Résumé

Purpose: To discuss the potential of deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the dentate nucleus as a treatment for dystono-dyskinetic syndromes.Methods: An extensive literature review covered the anatomy and physiology of the dentate nucleus and the experimental evidence for its involvement in the pathophysiology of dystonia and dyskinesia.Results: Evidence from animal models and from functional imaging in humans is strongly in favor of involvement of the dentate nucleus in dystono-dyskinetic syndromes. Results from previous surgical series of dentate nucleus stimulation were promising but precise description of movement disorders being treated were lacking and outcome measures were generally not well defined.Conclusions: In the light of new evidence regarding the involvement of the dentate nucleus in dystono-dyskinetic syndromes, we present a review of the current literature and discuss why the question of dentate nucleus stimulation deserves to be revisited.
