Is Stem Cell Treatment Appropriate for Patients Who Have DBS?

Patients with Parkinson's disease in advanced stage may be advised to make DBS in their brain. Is stem cell treatment appropriate for patients who have DBS? Let’s find the truth.
Parkinson's disease is a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system. The motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease result from the death of dopamine-generating cells in the substantia nigra, a region of the midbrain.
Deep Brain Stimulation
Is stem cell treatment appropriate for patients who have DBS? Deep brain stimulation (or DBS) is the main type of surgery used for Parkinson's treatment. DBS is a way to implant a medical device, which will work through sending electrical stimulation to a precisely targeted areas deep in the brain. Different area will decide different disease treatment, such as implantation in the globus pallidus is effective for Parkinson's disease treatment, while in the thalamus effective for essential tremor treatment. This implant surgery will help control the main symptoms of Parkinson's Disease, such as motor problem, thinking and behavioral problems as well as depression.
Is stem cell treatment appropriate for patients who have DBS?
Although many countries have started the stem cell research and clinical application, they still stay in clinical trials due to the late start or limited equipment and techniques conditions. Cells Center China is the first stem cell research and treatment center in the world, and the top Third level and Grade-A state-owned hospital in China.
It was established in 2004, with the approval and support by Chinese Government, which represents the top research and treatment level in China and advanced in the world. In the past 10 years, it has achieved great success in the combination of stem cell research and treatment.
We have 5 ways to perform stem cell treatment, which are appropriate for and applied in different diseases and patients’ condition. Through our clinical experience, patients who have DBS is not advised to make Stereotactic Brain Injection in consideration of the risks. However, we can perform Lumbar Puncture stem cell injection and Intravenous Infusion for them, which haven’t shown any risks ever.

Is stem cell treatment appropriate for patients who have DBS? Yes, in Cells Center China, we help Parkinson's patients find hope to live their normal lives. Want more? Email us at stemcellprc@gmail.com.
