A tremulous twiddler.

Zvi Israel1, Alexander Spivak.   

Abstract

Twiddler's syndrome describes the intentional external manipulation or spontaneous rotation of implanted devices such as cardiac pacemakers. Here we report the same phenomenon occurring in a patient with an implanted deep brain stimulator generator. The clinical syndrome is described and potential technical nuances to prevent its occurrence are suggested. Copyright 2008 S. Karger AG, Basel.
