In a prospective study of the Department of Neurosurgery, Klinikum rechts der Isar in Munich, patients with a brain tumour were assessed in a neuropsychological way at pre- and postoperative stage.

In total, there was a tendency towards cognitive decline in the early postoperative course, possibly with postoperative cognitive dysfunction as an influencing factor.
