1. Stereotactic procedure described in this report; neural-cell repair is not established by this case
2. Medical improvement of cerebral circulation, nutrition, and metabolism
3. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) therapy
4. Rehabilitation therapy focusing on motor skills, balance, and coordination
5. Symptomatic and supportive care
