Cette article parle d'une operation effectue en Chine avec succes (100%) sur
100 patients qui ont vues leurs conditions s'amelioraient d'une facon
exceptionnelle.  Les medecins ont utilises des microelectrodes qui permettent
d'avoir plus de precision pour trouver les cellules malades dans le cerveau.Le
medecin explique qu'il perce un trou dans le crane de un centimetre de long et
envoie le microelectrode dans le cerveau qui detecte les cellules
pathologiques et les tuent . A cette hopital, ils effectuent 2 operations par
jour. L'hopital recoivent beaucoup de demandes des pays voisins. Les attentes
peuvent allees jusqu'a l'an 2000. L'operation coute environ 12,000FF (approx)
comparativement a 120,000FF (Approx). Un homme de 73 ans qui avait la maladie
et qui ne marchait plus depuis nombres d'annees a subi l'operation.
