Brief Summary: The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of the deep brain stimulation in the posterior subthalamic area (PSA) versus the subthalamic nucleus (STN) for the treatment of dystonic tremor (DT) in a randomized, double-blinded, cross-over manner.
Detailed Description: This is a randomized, double-blinded, crossover trial aiming at comparing the efficacy of PSA and STN DBS in treating dystonic tremor. Enrolled patients will undergo bilateral DBS surgery, targeting both PSA and STN with single trajectory. Three months post-implantation, patients enter a 4-month double-blinded crossover phase with PSA and STN DBS in randomized order. After 7 months post-implantation (at the end of the crossover phase), patients enter an open-label phase during which programming parameters are not restricted until the termination of the study at 12-month follow-up.
