Parkinson's Disease Surgery
The most often performed surgical treatment for Parkinson's is deep brain stimulation (DBS). Thin metal wires, implanted in the brain by a surgeon to assist control some movement symptoms, provide electrical pulses to the brain. DBS is not for everyone, while being transformational for some.

In Turkey:
Parkinson's disease surgery in Turkey involves Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) or Thalamotomy procedures. DBS uses electrodes implanted in the brain to regulate abnormal impulses, while Thalamotomy destroys a small area of the thalamus to reduce tremors. Both offer significant symptom improvement.
Additional:
Highly-skilled surgeons perform these advanced treatments at accredited Turkish hospitals. Patients often travel from Europe for affordable prices and quicker access.
