Resumen

Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative pathology of the central nervous system that affects thousands of individuals worldwide. There are several treatment methods, from drugs to emerging surgical methods. Many studies in this field are carried out annually, in view of this, this study aims to bibliometrically analyze the 50 most cited articles regarding this topic. In February 2022, a search was performed in the PubMed, SCOPUS and Embase databases using the search terms “parkinson’s disease”, “deep brain stimulation” and “pallidotomy”. A total of 960 articles were found and, after their selection, the analysis of the 50 most cited was performed and then the metrics analyzed were the H index of the first author, year of publication, institution, country of origin, journal and its impact factor, total number of citations and the article methodology. This analysis brought the characteristics of the articles with the greatest impact in the scientific community on the use of pallidotomy and deep brain stimulation (DBS), and some insights on studies in this area.
