Resumen
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) in the subgenual cingulate (Cg25) is an approach currently investigated to treat resistant major depressive disorder. The first clinical series have reported an initial antidepressant response followed by a worsening of the symptomatology. Both clinical and preclinical findings showed that the implantation of the stimulation electrode causes an initial antidepressant effect, which seems to be mediated by a local inflammation and is abolished by treatment with NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs)
