pubmed-article:2017291 | pubmed:abstractText | Early examination (3 months) of 81 patients, operated on for ruptured cerebral aneurysms, by neurosurgeons and neuropsychologists show significant differences between them both; the neuropsychological evaluation has the best predictive value as far as the outcome is concerned especially regarding the return to their initial job (69% after a year in this series). The outcome also depends on the age, the preoperative grade, and the professional qualification. The aneurysm location and the date of the operation are not so important. Early neuropsychological evaluation enable us to start a rehabilitation program for socio professional reinsertion and to improve the quality of life. | lld:pubmed |
