U.S., April 5 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06912282) titled 'Bilateral Single-Electrode VO Combined With STN-DBS for Treating Meige Syndrome' on March 26.
Brief Summary: Meige syndrome is a rare and debilitating movement disorder characterized by blepharospasm, oromandibular dystonia, and cervical muscle contractions, often refractory to pharmacological therapies. Deep brain stimulation (DBS), initially developed to treat essential tremor and Parkinson's disease, has been explored in recent years as a potential treatment for various dystonias, including Meige's syndrome. This clinical study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of bilateral single-electrode ventralis oralis (VO) nucleus st...
