abstract = {Multimodal therapies have significantly improved prognosis
in glioma. However, in particular radiotherapy may induce
long-term neurotoxicity compromising patients'
neurocognition and quality of life. The present prospective
multicenter study aimed to evaluate associations of
multimodal treatment with neurocognition with a particular
focus on hippocampal irradiation.Seventy-one glioma patients
(WHO grade 1-4) were serially evaluated with neurocognitive
testing and quality of life questionnaires. Prior to
(baseline) and following further treatment (median 7.1 years
[range 4.6-11.0] after baseline) a standardized computerized
neurocognitive test battery (NeuroCog FX) was applied to
gauge psychomotor speed and inhibition, verbal short-term
memory, working memory, verbal and non-verbal memory as well
as verbal fluency. Mean ipsilateral hippocampal radiation
dose was determined in a subgroup of 27 patients who
received radiotherapy according to radiotherapy plans to
evaluate its association with neurocognition.Between
baseline and follow-up mean performance in none of the
cognitive domains significantly declined in any treatment
modality (radiotherapy, chemotherapy, combined
radio-chemotherapy, watchful-waiting), except for selective
attention in patients receiving chemotherapy alone. Apart
from one subtest (inhibition), mean ipsilateral hippocampal
radiation dose > 50 Gy (Dmean) as compared to < 10 Gy showed
no associations with long-term cognitive functioning.
However, patients with Dmean < 10 Gy showed stable or
improved performance in all cognitive domains, while
patients with > 50 Gy numerically deteriorated in 4/8
domains.Multimodal glioma therapy seems to affect
neurocognition less than generally assumed. Even patients
with unilateral hippocampal irradiation with > 50 Gy showed
no profound cognitive decline in this series.},
