How can it be explained ?

Researches garantee that the losses of production of dopamine by brain
neurons cause the symptoms of PD. To correct it one has to intake more
and more levedopa....to replenish the losses.

How come then that with pallidotomy and tallitomy where brain neurons
are destroyed by the cirurgies the symptoms decrease usually, and the
same happens with the necessary intake of levedopa(dopamine) ?

Someone has a good explanation to this apparent paradox ?
