Inovações cirúrgicas na abordagem de doenças neurodegenerativas

Abstract

This article is an integrative review of surgical innovations in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases. In response to the growing interest in the intersection between surgery, neuroscience and emerging technologies, it seeks to understand current and future trends in surgical interventions for the treatment of these conditions. The methodology adopted followed strict guidelines for conducting an integrative review. A systematic search was carried out in scientific databases such as PubMed, Scopus and Scielo, using specific keywords. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were established for the selection of references, taking into account their relevance to surgical innovations in neurodegenerative diseases. Critical analysis of the selected references revealed a wide range of surgical innovations applied in the context of neurodegenerative diseases. Approaches such as neurostimulation, brain-machine interfaces, deep brain stimulation and other advanced surgical techniques stand out. Results indicate significant benefits in terms of cognitive improvement, motor control and quality of life for patients undergoing these interventions. The integrative review provided a comprehensive overview of surgical innovations in the approach to neurodegenerative diseases. Technological advances and innovative surgical approaches present promising therapeutic prospects. However, challenges such as personalization of treatments and long-term evaluation still require further investigation. The conclusion underscores the continued importance of research in this field to improve the efficacy and safety of these interventions, thus contributing to advances in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
