Blepharospasm or cervical dystonia is the most usual symptom initially. Although deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus pallidus internus (GPi) has been widely used for treating CCD, its clinical outcome has been primarily evaluated in small-scale studies. This research examines the sustained clinical effectiveness of DBS of the GPi in individuals diagnosed with CCD.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>METHODS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The authors report 24 patients (14 women, 10 men) with refractory CCD who underwent DBS of the GPi between 2016 and 2023. The severity and disability of the dystonia were evaluated using the Burke-Fahn-Marsden Dystonia Rating Scale (BFMDRS). The BFMDRS scores were collected preoperatively, 6 months postoperatively, and at the most recent follow-up visit.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The mean age at onset was 52.0 \u00b1 11.0 years (range 33\u201371 years) and the mean disease duration was 63.3 \u00b1 73.3 months (range 7\u2013360 months) (values for continuous variables are expressed as the mean \u00b1 SD). The mean follow-up period was 37.5 \u00b1 23.5 months (range 6\u201384 months). The mean total BFMDRS motor scores at the 3 different time points were 13.3 \u00b1 9.4 preoperatively, 5.0 \u00b1 4.7 (55.3% improvement, p &lt; 0.001) at 6 months, and 4.5 \u00b1 3.6 (56.6% improvement, p &lt; 0.001) at last follow-up.
