In the article titled "Five-Year Clinical Outcomes of Local versus General Anesthesia Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson\'s Disease" \[[@B1]\], there was an error in Methods where the IRB "no. 097-32" was missing. The sentence "The institutional review board of Tzu Chi General Hospital approved this study (no. 097-08)" should be corrected as follows: "The Institutional Review Board of Tzu Chi General Hospital approved the studies (no. 097-08 and no. 097-32)."
