Comparison of neuropsychological side effects between contemporary radiofrequency ablative neurosurgery for psychiatric disorders and conventional neurosurgical procedures: systematic review and meta-analysis
Key Points
This research aims to compare the neuropsychological side effects of contemporary radiofrequency ablative neurosurgery with conventional neurosurgical procedures.
Conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of existing studies
Evaluated neuropsychological side effects in different neurosurgical techniques
Compared data from contemporary and conventional neurosurgical procedures
Contemporary radiofrequency ablative neurosurgery presents a similar risk of neuropsychological side effects compared to conventional techniques
Challenges existing misconceptions about the safety of contemporary procedures
Supports broader acceptance and use of radiofrequency ablative neurosurgery in treating psychiatric disorders
Abstract
Contemporary NPD apparently carries a similar risk of NPSE as other conventional neurosurgical procedures, challenging misconceptions and this unjustified barrier to its broader use.
