About
Dr. Anna Morenkova is a pioneering neurosurgeon whose work has advanced the precision and outcomes of deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson’s disease. Her primary research focuses on frameless stereotactic robotic-assisted surgery, particularly targeting the subthalamic nucleus to alleviate motor symptoms. In her landmark 2015 case report, she demonstrated the feasibility and accuracy of a robotic-assisted approach for DBS lead implantation, a study that has garnered 50 citations and laid the groundwork for minimally invasive functional neurosurgery. Building on this, her 2019 study reported two-year clinical outcomes from robotic-assisted subthalamic lead implantation, showing sustained improvements in motor function and quality of life with 18 citations. Dr. Morenkova’s contributions have helped shift the field toward safer, more reproducible surgical techniques, reducing patient discomfort and operative time. Her work is widely cited in neurosurgical and movement disorder literature, reflecting its impact on both clinical practice and device innovation. She is recognized as a key figure in the integration of robotics into stereotactic neurosurgery, offering new hope for patients with advanced Parkinson’s disease.
