Parkinson's disease [PD] is one of the most common
neurodegenerative disorders.
A progressive disease of the nervous system marked by tremor,
muscular rigidity, and slow, imprecise movement, chiefly affecting
middle-aged and elderly people. It is associated with degeneration
of the basal ganglia of the brain and a deficiency of the
neurotransmitter dopamine.

ROLE OF SURGERY IN PARKINSON’S DISEASE......
1. Deep brain stimulation [DBS] DBS is a neurosurgical procedure
involving the implantation of a medical device called a brain
pacemaker. which sends electrical impulses, through implanted
electrodes, to specific parts of the brain[brain nucleus] for the
treatment of movement and affective disorders.

In Parkinson's disease, a part of the brain called
the globuspallidus is overactive. This causes a
decrease in the activity of a different part of
the brain that controls movement. In a
pallidotomy, the surgeon destroys a tiny part of
the globuspallidus by creating a scar.

Gene therapy in Parkinson's disease consists of the creation of new cells that
produce a specific neurotransmitter (dopamine)

Stem-cell therapy is the use of stem cells to treat or prevent a disease or
condition.
Bone marrow transplant is the most widely used stem-cell therapy.

Parkinson's disease is a relatively common, progressive, movement disorder. Drugs only
provide symptomatic relief and give most patient an additional 3-6 years of happier and
productive life. Although there is no cure, there are several management options for the
early treatment of Parkinson’s disease. Conventional drug therapy is more effective and
economically beneficial than new drug thearapies. As the disease progresses, further
treatment options are available; however, the management of late-stage motor
complications and non-motor symptoms remains particularly challenging and will benefit
from further clinical research.
