Background: Anterior capsulotomy is one of the therapeutic options for refractory obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD). Safety and efficacy of Gamma Knife Capsulotomy (GKC) have been demonstrated in the past. Objective: To characterize changes induced by GKC using a fixel-based analysis (FBA) and possible predictors of efficacy. Methods: Patients with OCD refractory to other therapies underwent bilateral GKC with 120 Gy as a maximum dose on the anterior limb of the internal capsule (ALIC). The clinical outcome was percent reduction in Yale- Brown Obsessive–Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS). White Matter changes were analyzed using fixel-based analysis (FBA) for fibre density (FD), fibre-bundle cross-section (FC) and the combination of the two (FDC). Results: Seven patients underwent GKC. Median follow-up was 13 months (range 12–58 months). Mean (±SD) decrease in Y-BOCS score at last follow-up was 61 % ± 35 % with five patients considered as responders. FBA showed a symmetric FD reduction in the ALIC with extension to the anterior fronto-thalamic radiation; a reduction of FC along the superior longitudinal fasciculus (SLF) in both hemispheres with a predominance in the left one. Reductions in FDC were detected predominantly in the right hemisphere, with a similar pattern to FD reductions and associated with a positive correlation (p |
