Neuromodulation of metabolism and feeding behavior is at hand using modern systems of deep brain stimulation (DBS). It constitutes a minimally invasive approach for these challenging patients. The surgical procedure is reversible and proven to have acceptable side effects in the frail population of Parkinson's disease patients [Gorgulho, Hemorrhage and Infection]. Improvement of functional stereotactic surgery methods is necessary however to the challenge of implanting DBS electrodes in the hypothalamus. Recently, a case report of a patient with DBS implanted in the hypothalamus for treatment of morbid obesity who reported side effects related to memory appeared in the literature. The authors used the side effect findings to suggest the location of their implant as a site for treatment of Alzheimer's disease. This illustrates the need of betterment of our techniques of targeting in DBS surgery, especially for targets located in highly functional structures, such as the hypothalamus.
