    **Efficacy is uncertain. In children with cerebral palsy, stereotactic surgery can improve various movement disorders by destroying the posterior thalamic nodules, dorsolateral nucleus and cerebellar dentate nucleus, or a combination of different sites, with an efficacy of more than 80%. Episodic kinesthetically derived choreoathetosis is the same as familial episodic choreoathetosis, which is mainly sedative and anti-epileptic, and non-idiopathic patients should be looked for.
