The surgical management of brain tumors is based on the principle that the extent of
resection improves patient outcomes. Traditionally, neurosurgeons have considered that …

Purpose Low-grade glioma (LGG) patients may face health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL)
impairments, due to the tumour, treatment and associated side-effects and prospects of …

The importance of large-scale brain networks in higher-order human functioning is well
established in neuroscience, but has yet to deeply penetrate neurosurgical thinking due to …

Functional outcome following glioma surgery is defined as how the patient functions or feels.
Functional outcome is a coprimary end point of surgery in patients with diffuse glioma …

OBJECTIVE The authors evaluated the cognitive performance of patients with low-grade
glioma (LGG) before and after surgery, and specifically investigated 1) the effects of …

The left frontal aslant tract (FAT) has been proposed to be relevant for language, and
specifically for spontaneous speech fluency. However, there is missing causal evidence that …

Background Few large studies have investigated quality of life (QOL) for adults diagnosed
with lower grade glioma (LGG). Methods QOL was assessed for 320 adults with LGG (World …

Health related quality of life (HRQoL) has become an important consideration in LGG
patients. We report the largest prospective, longitudinal, cross-sectional cohort study of …

Objectives Elderly patients with surgically accessible brain tumors are often not offered
clinically indicated brain tumor surgery (BTS) because of to assumptions of greater risk for …

When the brain is exposed, such as after a craniotomy in neurosurgical procedures, we are
provided with the unique opportunity for real-time imaging of brain functionality. Real-time …
