Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder associated with motor, cognitive and affective impairments. Importantly, non-motor symptoms may have a greater impact on quality of life than motor symptoms. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) or lesions are increasingly applied as a neurosurgical treatment for PD, when motor symptoms can no longer be sufficiently controlled with medication. A patient's neuropsychological profile contributes to preoperative risk assessment and plays a pivotal role in assessing candidacy for DBS. Pre-existing cognitive impairment has been associated with worse outcome after DBS and cognitive factors are a leading reason for why patients with PD are not offered DBS.
