Deep brain stimulation and psychosis: A case series and two candidate causal brain circuits

2025-11-22

Abstract excerpt

Schizophrenia and psychosis are debilitating conditions with suboptimal treatment options. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) offers promise, but effective treatment targets remain undefined. Examining cases in which DBS either induced or alleviated psychotic symptoms may help identify circuits causally involved in psychosis and suggest candidate targets for intervention. We systematically reviewed the literature to ide...
