67-year-old Jyoti suffered from severe tremors in her arms and legs due to Parkinson’s Disease.

Neurosurgeons at Jain Hospital, Bangalore performed a wake thalamotomy to cure the extreme symptomatic neurological disease.

According to Dr. Sharon Srinivasan a key pathway was required to be destroyed in her brain so as to stop the involuntary tremors.

Dr. Srinivasan also added that one needs to be precise during circuit burning and that too which is located 8 – 9 cm deep inside the brain as any mistake can could cause a major brain stroke.
