d**u 发帖数: 278 | 1 A 69 year old man with Parkinson disease has a progression of his tremor
that is unresponsive to medications.A stereotactic operation is scheduled.To
alleviate the tremor, the needle should be placed in which of the following?
A)Cerebellar hemisphere
B)Frontal lobe of cortex.
C)Globus pallidus.
D)Inferior Olivery Nucleaus.
E)Substantia Nigra.
The answer is C, but why C but not E?
Thanks a lot! | m******e 发帖数: 574 | 2 I think,
For E, you ablate the substantia nigra by a needle, then it is going to
mimic Parkinson, accetuate Tremor.
This question is based on FA2011 p400. It is like that tremor is inhibited
by blocking the pathway.
Not 100% sure |
