Neurocognitive Functioning in Glioblastoma Multiforme Patients during Radiotherapy Plus Concomitant and Adjuvant Temozolomide: A Case Series

Original language description

Background: Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) belongs to the most aggressive brain tumours with limited therapeutic options. In the clinical presentation often dominate the mental changes (memory loss, impaired speech, changes in personality and temperament). The authors evaluate in a pilot study the neurocognitive function of patients with GBM. Patients and Methods: The evaluation of neurocognitive function had been performed during 2009-2010 in eleven patients with GBM (9 women, 2 men) with a mean age of56.8 years (age range 45-72). The assessment of neurocognitive functions was performed by clinical neuropsychologist using the methods sensitive for cognitive deficit. Results: Because of a limited set of patients and an insufficient number of schedule check-ups (caused by severe tumour progression) the results could not be statistically evaluated. Due to these circumstances, the results of a pilot project are presented in the form of a case series. There are presented the results of thr
