Generalized dystonia is a disabling disorder that can severely affect quality of life. Pharmacological treatment is unsatisfactory, and surgical therapy has been the focus for symptom improvement. We present the first case report of a patient with disabling generalized dystonia treated with a thalamotomy and deep brain stimulation of the thalamus and globus pallidus (DBS-Vim, DBS-GPi). His tremor and dystonic symptoms have dramatically improved through combining these surgical interventions.
