Abstract: Manic symptoms have been reported as adverse effects of bilateral deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) in patients with Parkinson''s disease. In previous reports, manic symptoms were described as transient, not associated with psychotic features, and improved spontaneously or with medical adjustments. The medial part of the STN seems to play a key role in the occurrence of these manic symptoms. We report the case of a manic episode with psychotic symptoms in a patient with Parkinson''s disease treated by STN DBS, which improved with a change in the stimulated target. This case demonstrates the efficacy of switching the stimulation target against a manic episode with psychotic features secondary to DBS. [Copyright &y& Elsevier] |
