About
Anne Jeanjean is a leading figure in functional neurosurgery, with a focused expertise in deep brain stimulation (DBS) for movement disorders, particularly Parkinson’s disease. Her major contribution lies in refining surgical techniques to improve patient outcomes and procedural safety. In her most cited work, a 2016 study on subthalamic nucleus (STN) DBS, she demonstrated the feasibility and efficacy of implanting electrodes under general anaesthesia while using intraoperative 3D fluoroscopy for precise lead placement. This approach, validated in a series of ten consecutive patients, offers a compelling alternative to traditional awake surgery, reducing patient discomfort and potentially expanding access to DBS. With 13 citations, this paper has influenced clinical protocols and sparked further investigation into image-guided, asleep DBS. Jeanjean’s work bridges the gap between technical innovation and practical application, making her a respected voice in the field. Her ongoing research continues to shape how neurosurgeons optimize electrode targeting, ultimately enhancing the lives of those living with Parkinson’s disease.
