It was reported that the patient that is implanted with the off-label use of the implantable pulse generator (ipg) of the deep brain stimulation (dbs) system, underwent an unrelated surgery procedure causing the ipg to migrate which caused pain and discomfort while sleeping, however, it was noted that imaging was not performed to confirm migration.The patient underwent a revision procedure in which the ipg was upgraded to a new device and is doing well post operatively.The device will not be returned for analysis as it was disposed of per hospital policy.
