Can Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) control the tremor in tremor-dominant Parkinson's disease? For many patients, yes — DBS can dramatically reduce, and sometimes nearly eliminate, the resting tremor that medication no longer controls. This playlist shows real before-and-after videos of tremor-dominant Parkinson's patients treated by Prof. Atilla YILMAZ, MD, who has performed 800+ DBS surgeries for patients from 60+ countries. Tremor-dominant Parkinson's disease is a form of Parkinson's in which shaking — especially resting tremor of the hands — is the most disabling symptom. When tremor stops responding well to medication, or when side effects become hard to tolerate, Deep Brain Stimulation offers a proven surgical option. By placing precise electrodes in targets such as the subthalamic nucleus (STN), stimulation calms the brain circuits that drive the tremor. In the videos in this playlist, you can watch patients before surgery — struggling with visible, uncontrolled shaking — and then again after DBS, often with a dramatic change in tremor and daily function. In our case series, most patients experience substantial tremor improvement, though results vary from patient to patient. Every procedure is performed at the Movement Disorders & Neuromodulation Center, Ataşehir Medicana International Hospital, Istanbul, by a dedicated 21-member DBS team focused exclusively on Deep Brain Stimulation. If you or a loved one has tremor-dominant Parkinson's disease, you are welcome to contact us for an evaluation — international patients are supported from the first consultation through long-term, remote follow-up.
