Peri- and intraoperative cognitive and language assessment for surgical resection in brain eloquent structures.
Neuro-Chirurgie 2017 June
Neuropsychological care of patients suffering from an infiltrative glioma and candidates for a neurosurgery under awake condition with intraoperative functional mapping is a critical and mandatory stage in therapeutic management. It enables to estimate the functional impact of the tumor and, consequently, the efficacy of functional reorganization typically observed in these patients, not only to better predict surgery outcomes and select appropriate tasks for intraoperative functional mapping, but also to plan efficient and individualized postoperative cognitive rehabilitation strategies. Neuropsychological care management also enables patients to benefit from a solid psychological preparation both to the surgery and its associated transitory functional consequences, as well as provide a personalized psychological and emotional long-term support. Based on their solid experience in the peri-operative care of diffuse low-grade glioma patients, the authors thoroughly describe the different stages of neuropsychological management. Cognitive, emotional and language assessments typically used by the authors around and during surgery are reported, and different possible avenues of improvement are further discussed.
