👉 Aponeurotomy is a surgical procedure that involves removing a portion of the nervous system from a part of the brain called the pontine nucleus. This operation can be performed in order to treat conditions such as Parkinson's disease or Huntington's disease, where the brain cells are affected by abnormal movements and jerks. The goal of an aponeurotomy is to correct these abnormalities so that the patient can regain control over their movements and improve quality of life.
