Dorsal subthalamic nucleus targeting in deep brain stimulation: microelectrode recording versus 7-Tesla connectivity. Brain Commun 2023; 5:fcad298.

Abstract
Connectivity-derived 7-Tesla MRI segmentation and intraoperative microelectrode recording can both assist subthalamic nucleus targeting for deep brain stimulation in Parkinson's disease. It remains unclear whether deep brain stimulation electrodes placed in the 7-Tesla MRI segmented subdivision with predominant projections to cortical motor areas (hyperdirect pathway) achieve superior motor improvement and whether microelectrode recording can accurately distinguish the motor subdivision. In 25 patients with Parkinson's disease, deep brain stimulation electrodes were evaluated for being inside or outside the predominantly motor-connected subthalamic nucleus (motor-connected subthalamic nucleus or non-motor-connected subthalamic nucleus, respectively) based on 7-Tesla MRI connectivity segmentation. Hemi-body motor improvement (Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale, Part III) and microelectrode recording characteristics of multi- and single-unit activities were compared between groups. Deep brain stimulation electrodes placed in the motor-connected subthalamic nucleus resulted in higher hemi-body motor improvement, compared with electrodes placed in the non-motor-connected subthalamic nucleus (80% versus 52%, P < 0.0001). Multi-unit activity was found slightly higher in the motor-connected subthalamic nucleus versus the non-motor-connected subthalamic nucleus (P < 0.001, receiver operating characteristic 0.63); single-unit activity did not differ between groups. Deep brain stimulation in the connectivity-derived 7-Tesla MRI subthalamic nucleus motor segment produced a superior clinical outcome; however, microelectrode recording did not accurately distinguish this subdivision within the subthalamic nucleus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Deep brain stimulation (DBS) can be a life-changing intervention for patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), but its success is largely dependent on precise lead placement. The subthalamic nucleus (STN) is one of the most common surgical targets of DBS, but the close anatomical and physiological resemblance of the STN to the mediocaudal red nucleus renders these landmarks difficult to distinguish. OBSERVATIONS We present an atypical case in which targeted localization of the STN resulted in symptoms pathognomonic of rubrospinal tract (RST) stimulation. A 79-year-old female with a 12-year history of right-hand resting tremor due to medically refractory PD presented for asleep bilateral STN-DBS surgery. Right STN intraoperative testing revealed left hand and elbow flexion contractures, initially suggestive of corticospinal tract activation, despite imaging studies demonstrating reasonable lead placement in the central dorsolateral STN. The lead was moved anteromedially near the medial border of the STN, but stimulation at this location revealed similar but more robust flexor hand and arm contractures, without any extraocular muscle involvement. Thus, activation of the RST was suspected. LESSONS Isolated activation of the RST is possible during STN-DBS surgery. Its identification can help avoid false localization and suboptimal lead placement.

BJA OPEN 2022; 3:100088. [PMID: 37588575 PMCID: PMC10430856 DOI: 10.1016/j.bjao.2022.100088] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2022] [Accepted: 08/03/2022] [Indexed: 08/18/2023]
Abstract
Background Micro-electrode recordings are often necessary during electrode implantation for deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus. Dexmedetomidine may be a useful sedative for these procedures, but there is limited information regarding its effect on neural activity in the subthalamic nucleus and on micro-electrode recording quality. Methods We recorded neural activity in five patients undergoing deep brain stimulation implantation to the subthalamic nucleus. Activity was recorded after subthalamic nucleus identification while patients received dexmedetomidine sedation (loading - 1 μg kg-1 over 10-15 min, maintenance - 0.7 μg kg-1 h-1). We compared the root-mean square (RMS) and beta band (13-30 Hz) oscillation power of multi-unit activity recorded by microelectrode before, during and after recovery from dexmedetomidine sedation. RMS was normalised to values recorded in the white matter. Results Multi-unit activity decreased during sedation in all five patients. Mean normalised RMS decreased from 2.8 (1.5) to 1.6 (1.1) during sedation (43% drop, p = 0.056). Beta band power dropped by 48.4%, but this was not significant (p = 0.15). Normalised RMS values failed to return to baseline levels during the time allocated for the study (30 min). Conclusions In this small sample, we demonstrate that dexmedetomidine decreases neuronal firing in the subthalamic nucleus as expressed in the RMS of the multi-unit activity. As multi-unit activity is a factor in determining the subthalamic nucleus borders during micro-electrode recordings, dexmedetomidine should be used with caution for sedation during these procedures. Clinical trial number NCT01721460.

Abstract
BACKGROUND STN-DBS is a cornerstone in the treatment of advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). The traditional approach is to use an awake operative technique with microelectrode recording (MER). However, more centers start using an asleep MRI-guided technique without MER. OBJECTIVE We systematically reviewed the literature to compare STN-DBS surgery with and without MER for differences in clinical outcome. METHODS We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, MEDLINE, and Web of Science databases for randomized clinical trials and consecutive cohort studies published between 01-01-2000 and 26-08-2021, that included at least 10 PD patients who had received bilateral STN-DBS. RESULTS 2,129 articles were identified. After abstract screening and full-text review, 26 studies were included in the final analysis, comprising a total of 34 study groups (29 MER and 5 non-MER). The standardized mean difference (SMD) in change in motor symptoms between baseline (OFF medication) and 6-24 months follow-up (OFF medication and ON stimulation) was 1.64 for the MER group and 1.87 for non-MER group (p = 0.59). SMD in change in levodopa equivalent daily dose (LEDD) was 1.14 for the MER group and 0.65 for non-MER group (p < 0.01). Insufficient data were available for comparative analysis of PDQ-39 and complications. CONCLUSION The change in motor symptoms from baseline to follow-up did not differ between studies that used MER and those that did not. The postoperative reduction in LEDD from baseline to follow-up was greater in the MER-group. In the absence of high-quality studies comparing both methods, there is a clear need for a well-designed comparative trial.
