Overview

Case report observes sudden aggressive behavior in a Parkinson's patient during subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation, highlighting neuropsychiatric risks.

Key Points

  • Aggressive behavior occurred intraoperatively, highlighting the need for thorough psychiatric assessments.
  • A 57-year-old female presented with sudden aggression during deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus.
  • The psychiatric symptoms were effectively managed with quetiapine after adjusting the stimulation location.
  • This case underscores the importance of understanding neuroanatomical impacts during deep brain stimulation.
