Background: Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) has become increasingly prevalent in the management of paediatric movement disorders, with the globus pallidus interna (GPi) serving as the most utilized target. However, limitations exist, including variable responses in genetic versus acquired forms of movement disorder and structural damage in the GPi would preclude its use as a target. Given these limitations, there is a pressing need to explore alternative targets. We investigated the application of non-GPi targets in paediatrics through a systematic review. Methods: Individual data points were gathered from references identified through a systematic electronic search and analysed descriptively. We included paediatric patients (0-18 years) with movement disorders who underwent non-GPi-DBS. We excluded adults and other indications. Results: Preliminarily, 64 patients were identified from 40 references. Dystonia was the most common movement disorder type, followed by tremor and chorea. The subthalamic nucleus was the frequent DBS target for dystonia, yielding promising outcomes of improvement as measured on the Burke-Fahn-Marsden movement scale ranging from 43% to 95%. The ventral intermediate nucleus was the second most employed target, demonstrating favourable results. Conclusions: Non-pallidal DBS targets hold promise as potentially efficient and safe. However, to further validate their effectiveness and safety, larger multi-centre randomized studies are required.
