“…The left hippocampus was also found as an “eloquent” hotspot for verbal memory and critically linked to memory deficits in brain tumor patients ( Campanella et al, 2018 ). Finally, when considering only the left hemisphere, patients suffering from tumors in the anterior temporal lobe were most frequently and severely impaired in verbal memory as compared to lesions in other areas ( Behrens et al, 2021 ).…”

“…However, very little has been done with respect to other cognitive functions which are equally important for an adequate level of quality of life and are seriously disabling if deficient. Many studies conducted thanks to systematic protocols of neuropsychological assessment highlight, in fact, the constant presence of cognitive problems related to functions other than language in patients suffering from brain tumors or epilepsy who are treated surgically [ 54 , 55 ].…”

In this case report, real-time neuropsychological testing (RTNT) and music listening were applied for resections in the left temporal–parietal lobe during awake surgery (AS). The case is based on a 66-year-old with glioblastoma and alterations in expressive language and memory deficit. Neuropsychological assessment was run at baseline (2–3 days before surgery), discharge from hospital (2–3 days after surgery), and follow-up (1 month and 3 months). RTNT was started before beginning the anesthetic approach (T0) and during tumor excision (T1 and T2). At T0, T1, and T2 (before performing neuropsychological tests), music listening was applied. Before AS and after music listening, the patient reported a decrease in depression and anxiety. During AS, an improvement was shown in all cognitive parameters collected at T0, T1, and T2. After the excision and music listening, the patient reported a further decrease in depression and anxiety. Three days post surgery, and at follow-ups of one month and three months, the patient reported a further improvement in cognitive aspects, the absence of depression, and a reduction in anxiety symptoms. In conclusion, RTNT has been useful in detecting cognitive function levels during tumor excision. Music listening during AS decreased the patient’s anxiety and depression symptoms.
