Thalamic deep brain stimulation improves tremor and spatio-temporal characteristics of gait in medically refractory orthostatic tremor
Objective: To characterize response to thalamic deep brain stimulation (DBS) in a patient with medically refractory orthostatic tremor using instrumented measures of tremor and mobility.…Treatment of medically refractory orthostatic tremor: deep brain stimulation of bilateral thalamic ventral intermediate nucleus with sustained symptomatic improvement
Objective: We describe a case of medically refractory orthostatic tremor successfully treated with deep brain stimulation in the ventral intermediate nucleus (Vim) of the thalamus.…Functional Truncal Orthostatic-Dependent Tremor in A Patient with Autoimmune Thyroid Disorder
Objective: To illustrate the electrophysiological and clinical findings in a patient with functional truncal orthostatic-dependent tremor. Background: Typical orthostatic tremor is a unique type of…Successful Treatment of Orthostatic Tremor using Perampanel
Objective: Orthostatic tremor is notoriously difficult to treat. To date, there has only been one case report of marked improvement of symptoms using perampanel. We present…Orthostatic Tremor Mimics: A Case Series
Objective: To assess the importance of polymyographic registration of abnormal movements in differential diagnosis of tremor in orthostatism. Background: Orthostatic tremor (OT) is typical with…Orthostatic tremor – a case series
Objective: To study the clinical characteristics of a large single-centre cohort of patients with Orthostatic Tremor (OT) Background: OT is a rare but disabling condition…Orthostatic jaw tremor, a diagnostic challenge
Objective: To present a rare movement disorder of an orthostatic jaw tremor and a remarkable benefit from treatment with botulinum toxin A Background: Jaw tremor…Characteristics of arm tremors in primary orthostatic tremor
Objective: To clarify the characteristics of arm tremors in a case with primary orthostatic tremor (OT) using surface electromyography (SEMG) with modifications of recording conditions.…Trans-spinal direct current stimulation for managing primary orthostatic tremor
Objective: To evaluate in a randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, crossover trial the efficacy of non-invasive trans-spinal direct current stimulation (tsDCS) for managing primary orthostatic tremor (POT).…Bilateral Deep Brain Stimulation of the Ventral Intermediate Thalamic Nucleus for Orthostatic Tremor: A Case Report
Objective: Orthostatic tremor was first described in 1977 (Pazzaglia et al.); they described three patients with lower body tremor during standing. Tremor with a frequency…
