neurosurgical therapy against OCD?

Question

i hear from somebody recently that neurosurgical therapy can be leveraged in most of the hospital today to fully eradicate obsessive and compulsive disorder by cutting off the over-reactive part of the tissue in the brain, is that real?
thanks for any constructive tip

Answer 1

This was on a program on Discovery Health channel only recently. I do not believe it has widespread approval. If you go to the Discovery website, you might be able to find more information about it. In the program, only folks with the most severe form of OCD had treatment.
