Postoperative neurocognitive function decline is prevalent, especially in memory and verbal fluency domains.
Patients with left hemisphere tumors experienced poorer outcomes in neurocognitive tests, with significant decline in more than half.
Retrospective review of 53 patients with insular glioma focusing on the impact of surgical approach on neuropsychological outcomes.
The study highlights the importance of tumor characteristics in predicting specific neurocognitive decline risks after surgery.
