A case of dystonia treated with Gamma Knife radiosurgery is reported. A 37-year-old female patient had a history of tuberculous meningitis at the age of 10 and subsequently developed a left hemidystonia. MRI showed an old infarction in the right caudate nucleus, globus pallidus and putamen. Stereotactic Gamma Knife radiosurgery was employed to make a lesion in the right posteroventral globus pallidus. Postoperatively, the patient's condition improved. However, homonymous hemianopsia developed postoperatively.
