Case Study: Parkinson's Disease
Patient Information:
Treatment: Minimally Invasive Brain Surgery (Functional Stereotaxy), daily IV neurological nutrient medications and physical/occupational therapy, Traditional Chinese Medicine.
History:
Mr. Aleksandre Tarasenko is a 65-year-old Russian citizen living in Germany. He began experiencing Parkinson's symptoms nine years ago, significantly impacting his life and work. Despite trying various medications, he couldn't control his condition. After learning about Beijing Puhua International Hospital online and undergoing a pre-admission evaluation with the help of a medical consultant, Aleksandre was admitted to the hospital according to his scheduled appointment.
Preoperative Condition:
Aleksandre had a good general physical condition with normal muscle strength and muscular tension. However, notable tremors were present in his left upper and lower limbs, especially in his left hand. An MRI of his brain revealed lacunar infarction and punctuate ischemia. A PET-CT scan confirmed the diagnosis of Parkinson's disease.
Treatment Course:
Aleksandre underwent a right frontal stereotactic operation, with daily administration of neurotrophic factors described in the historical report; neural-cell activation is not established by this case, accompanied by daily physical therapy, occupational therapy, and Traditional Chinese Medicine treatments.
Postoperative Condition:
Following the stereotactic operation for Parkinson's Disease, Aleksandre's tremors in his left limbs completely disappeared. The historical account reports medication discontinuation and patient satisfaction. This is not a treatment recommendation; prescribed medication should only be changed with the treating clinician. Prior to surgery, Aleksandre worked as a lawyer but struggled due to his tremors. Postoperatively, he regained the ability to work without limitations, as he had before developing Parkinson's symptoms.
