Graat, i., mocking, r.J.T., liebrand, l.C., munckhof, p., bot, m., schuurman, p.R., bergfeld, i.O., wingen, g., denys, d.Tractogr aphy-based versus anatomical landmark-based targeting in valic deep brain stimulation for refractory obsessive-compulsive disorder.Molecular psychiatry (2022).Https://doi.Org/10.1038/s41380-022-01760-y deep brain stimulation (dbs) of the ventral anterior limb of the internal capsule (valic) is effective for refractory obsessivecompulsive disorder (ocd).Retrospective evaluation showed that stimulation closer to the supero-lateral branch of the medial forebrain bundle (slmfb), within the valic, was associated with better response to dbs.The present study is the first to compare outcomes of dbs targeted at the valic using anatomical landmarks and dbs with connectomic tractography-based targeting of the slmfb.We included 20 ocd-patients with anatomical landmark-based dbs of the valic that were propensity score matched to 20 patients with tractography-based targeting of electrodes in the slmfb.After one year, we compared severity of ocd, anxiety and depression symptoms, response rates, time to response, number of parameter adjustments, average current, medication usage and stimulation-related adverse effects.There was no difference in y-bocs decrease between patients with anatomical landmark-based and tractography-based dbs.Nine (45%) patients with anatomical landmark-based dbs and 13 (65%) patients with tractographybased dbs were responders (bf10 = 1.24).The course of depression and anxiety symptoms, time to response, number of stimulation adjustments or medication usage did not differ between groups.Patients with tractography-based dbs experienced fewer stimulation-related adverse effects than patients with anatomical landmark-based dbs (38 vs 58 transient and 1 vs.17 lastingadverse effects; bf10 = 14.968).Ocd symptoms in patients with anatomical landmark-based dbs of the valic and tractographybased dbs of the slmfb decrease equally, but patients with tractography-based dbs experience less adverse effects.Reportable events: conventional dbs reported in total 58 transient adverse events and 17 lasting adverse events tractography-based dbs reported 38 transient adverse events and 1 lasting adverse event 11 patients experienced symptoms of hypomania one patient attempted suicide one patient experienced a manic episode when the dbs was turned on, which required psychiatric ward admission.2 mania 5 suicidal thoughts 14 hypomanic symptoms following stimulation adjustments (euphoria, hyperactivity, insomnia, restlessness, impulsivity) 1 manic episode following stimulation adjustments 9 irritability 17 sleeping problems 8 fatigue 16 restlessness 2 panic attacks 6 impulsivity 2 increased libido 1 sensitivity to sound 2 psychotic symptoms 3 tics 1 depressive symptoms 1 aggression 1 grinding teeth 2 restless legs syndrome 1 hearing problem 7 memory problem 2 concentration problem 2 muscular complaints 6 headache 1 epileptic insult 1 palpitations 1 auto mutilation 1 pain in stomach 1 neuropathy 2 decreased apatite 10 paresthesia see attached literature article.
