To: [log in to unmask] > Right on Bill. I think we are privileged to have DR. CHRIS on the list. And Chris has a good point. Once pallidotomy has been done, the anatomy is no longer "virgin" and subsequent surgical procedures may be quite variable. Those who have been on this list for a while must remember that I have not been particularly favorable towards pallidotomy, even though I was doing them (in my training) back in the sixties!
