Objective: To analyze the correlation between intracranial air and electrode displacement after deep brain stimulation. Compared the accuracy of the electrodes on both sides while bilateral intracranial air. Methods: A total of 133 patients with bilateral DBS from February 2017 to February 2019 in neurosurgery department of the General Hospital of Northern Theater Command were included. A total of 266 electrodes were implanted, including 160 sides of subthalamic nucleus, 2 sides of ventromedial nucleus of thalamus and 104 sides of Globus pallidus interior. All patients underwent three-dimensional reconstruction of the head 2 hours after operation and 1 week after operation, which was fused with the preoperative surgical plan.The volume of the intracranial air is obtained by summing up the CT layer-by-layer measurements after surgery. The distance between the implanted electrode and the preoperative target on the X and Y axes in the target plane is measured.Values were expressed as means±SEM,and the t test was performed. Bivariate correlation analysis using linear correlation analysis.P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: There was no statistically significant difference in the fusion error of the electrode between 2 hours and 1 week after surgery on the X-axis. But there was significant difference on the Y-axis. The difference between intracranial air volume and two fusion errors was not linearly correlated on X axis, but linearly positively correlated on Y axis. Conclusion: Intracranial air volume is an important factor affecting the accuracy of DBS surgery. The larger intracranial air volume, the larger the displacement of electrodes on Y axis.
