Parkinson's disease

Read more Collapse

Parkinson's disease is not yet fully cured, but it is being successfully brought under control. Treatment of Parkinson's disease abroad is aimed at slowing its development and relieving symptoms. With high-quality treatment, the patient can live a long and active life.

Medical treatment

Muscle rigidity, tremor, and instability occur because the neurons that produce dopamine die. Without this hormone, there is no signal transmission from the brain to the muscles. Dopamine partially restores the drug Levodopa, but it cannot heal damage to brain cells. Abroad, it is used only in the early stages. Over time, the dose needs to be increased, and the patient may only get worse.

More effective and safer drugs can already be offered abroad for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. In addition, drug therapy is several times cheaper than surgery.

Non-invasive methods of treating Parkinson's disease abroad

  • Stem cells. Stem cells are immature cells that, when "maturing", can turn into cells of any organs and tissues. They are "extracted" from the patient's bone or adipose tissue. The resulting stem cells are injected into places requiring regeneration. They are then naturally converted into nerve cells in the brain, thereby restoring the lack of dopamine.
  • Deep brain stimulation. If medications no longer help, patients are shown deep brain stimulation (DBS). This is one of the most effective methods of treating Parkinson's disease abroad. At the first stage, thin electrodes are connected to the necessary brain areas. During the operation, the patient is conscious and answers the neurologist's questions. This is necessary in order to make sure that the electrodes are connected correctly and the necessary areas are stimulated. After a few days, a stimulator is sewn into the chest. The patient can control it, turn it on and off if necessary.
  • Gamma knife or stereotactic ablation. Exposure to the brain by gamma radiation. In this case, there is no opening of the skull or incisions, but the pathological area of the tissue is literally evaporated by exposure to rays. Surgery is very effective for the treatment of uncontrolled tremor. With the help of a "knife", surgeons can work on the most inaccessible areas without affecting healthy tissue.

Ultrasound, physiotherapy, various rehabilitation programs, surgical operations, cryosurgery and other methods are also used abroad for the treatment of Parkinson's disease.

My work involves precise small movements. At home, I consulted several doctors, but they could not help me get rid of hand tremors. Therefore, I contacted Asklepios. Here they conducted several additional tests and prescribed medication that should help stop the tremor. The clinic has very courteous and attentive treatment. The translator accurately translated all the doctor's words, so there were no difficulties in understanding. I am satisfied with my trip.

I came to Memorial Şişli Hospital with a bad diagnosis. I had the first symptoms of Parkinson's disease. This was a great stress for me. I didn't think that age-related diseases would catch up with me so quickly. But when my hands started shaking and I had difficulties even drinking water on my own, it became clear that something needed to be done. It's good that my children helped find this wonderful clinic. I feel improvements in my well-being and the symptoms of the disease have become less noticeable.

I conscientiously took the medications prescribed to me, but the tremor in my hands was not decreasing. I decided to get a consultation at another clinic. Now I can say that I am satisfied with how I was received. The doctor was attentive. I think he knows his job. I have already started taking the medicine he prescribed for me. Thank you.

In six months, I plan to come for a follow-up consultation.
