Evaluation of the Variation Over Time of Visuospatial Deficit in Patients With Parietal Lobe Glioma
Fondazione I.R.C.C.S. Istituto Neurologico Carlo Besta

OBSERVATIONAL
Conditions
Summary
The goal of modern neurooncological surgery is to obtain maximum tumor resection while preserving neurological function. Parietal lobe gliomas often cause attention deficits (hemineglect) that are difficult to differentiate from other deficits. This study aims to evaluate the extent and variation over time of visuo-spatial deficits in patients undergoing surgical removal of parietal lobe gliomas. This will help characterize the cognitive profile of these patients to identify personalized treatment and rehabilitation paths.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria3
- Patients \>18 years old
- Patients must understand the Italian Language

Exclusion Criteria6
- Tumor site other than parietal lobe.

- Patients who received a previous chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy treatment.
- Patients with a history of intracranial mass lesion or traumatic brain injury.
- Patients with a history of other CNS diseases (e.g., stroke, metastasis).
- Patients with diagnosis of neurodegenerative disease (i.e. Alzheimer's Disease, Frontotemporal Dementia, Parkinson's Disease, Lewy Body Dementia, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis).
