Abstract

Hemorrhagic venous infarction secondary to deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery occurs rarely and can cause delayed intracranial hemorrhage. Venous cerebral infarction after DBS surgery is commonly caused by coagulation of the superficial cerebral veins, which usually produces transient symptoms but leaves no permanent sequelae. We report a case of hemorrhagic venous infarction resulting in severe sequelae, likely due to coagulation of the lateral venous lacuna during DBS surgery.
