A Study of the Effect of Right Frontal Lobectomy on Intelligence and Temperament.
نویسنده
چکیده
A VARIETY of psychological examinations and related observations were made upon a patient before and after removal of the right prefrontal regions for an oligodendroglioma. Although lesions of the prefrontal regions have long been associated with disturbances of intellect and personality, few attempts have been made to measure changes subsequent to right frontal lobectomy, though two cases have been studied thoroughly following bilateral frontal lobectomy (Brickner, 1932, and 1936 ; Ackerly, 1935). The present case afforded excellent opportunity for study because of the minimal symptomatology prior to operation and because of the patient's high intelligence quotient.
