Cognitive dysfunction in children with brain tumors at diagnosis
BACKGROUND Survivors of brain tumors have a high risk for a wide range of cognitive problems. These dysfunctions are caused by the lesion itself and its surgical removal, as well as subsequent treatments (chemo- and/or radiation therapy). Multiple recent studies have indicated that children with brain tumors (BT) might already exhibit cognitive problems at diagnosis, i.e., before the start of a...
متن کاملComparison with other low-grade brain tumors
Method: F o rty-two patients with low-grade brain tumor and re f r a c t o ry epilepsy were studied. The mean age was 22.3 years. They were divided into two groups: Group A, patients with ganglioglioma (n=19) and group B, patients with other low-grade tumors (n=23) (14 astrocytoma, 6 oligodend roglioma, 2 dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor, and 1 xanthoastro c y t o m a ) . Results: Age at ...
متن کاملNoninvasive magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging biomarkers to predict the clinical grade of pediatric brain tumors.
The diagnosis and therapy of childhood brain tumors, most of which are low grade, can be complicated because of their frequent adjacent location to crucial structures, which limits diagnostic biopsy. Also, although new prognostic biomarkers identified by molecular analysis or DNA microarray gene profiling are promising, they too depend on invasive biopsy. Here, we test the hypothesis that combi...
متن کاملInformant-reported cognitive symptoms that predict amnestic mild cognitive impairment
BACKGROUND Differentiating amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) from normal cognition is difficult in clinical settings. Self-reported and informant-reported memory complaints occur often in both clinical groups, which then necessitates the use of a comprehensive neuropsychological examination to make a differential diagnosis. However, the ability to identify cognitive symptoms that are pr...
متن کاملComputerized Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Examination for Neurocognitive Monitoring of Children with Benign and Malignant Brain Cerebellar Tumor
Background: Brain tumors in the cerebellum site, especially in the cranial nuclei, are most commonly associated with cognitive impairment in children, but the differences in dimensions of cognitive impairments in pediatric benign and malignant tumors are rarely studied. Meanwhile, cognitive impairments in this area are required to be widely studied. This study aimed at using Computerized Addenb...
