    • English
    Pediatric Deep Brain Stimulation offers the first comprehensive, multi-disciplinary exploration of this rapidly advancing field, providing clinicians with an authoritative guide to the science, practice, and future of pediatric neuromodulation.Orga... into four integrated sections, the book begins with the essentials of a pediatric DBS program—including state-of-the-art imaging, peri-operative management, complication avoidance, and ethical considerations unique to the developing brain. Subsequent chapters examine the use of DBS across the spectrum of childhood movement disorders, from monogenic and acquired dystonias to non-dystonic conditions. A dedicated section addresses neuromodulation for pediatric epilepsy, with a focus on emerging technologies. The book concludes with cutting-edge applications of DBS in neurodevelopmental and neuropsychiatric disorders and a view toward the integration of neuroengineering to expand the reach and future potential of circuit-based interventions in children.Edited by a pediatric movement disorders neurologist and a pediatric functional neurosurgeon who together direct an integrative, comprehensive pediatric DBS program, this volume brings a uniquely collaborative perspective and deep clinical expertise. It is an essential resource for neurosurgeons, neurologists, epileptologists, pediatric specialists, and researchers committed to advancing care for children with severe neurological disease.
