Abstract

Cerebral tumors are common causes of severe neuropsychologic deficit in humans. In many cases, these individuals are not seen by neuropsychologists because they may initially present with strong signs of increases in intracranial pressure, strong focal neurologic signs, or seizure activity which can rapidly lead to medical care and treatment. Other neoplasms, however, may present very subtle signs which can be missed or ignored when the patient is evaluated. The symptoms may, in fact, superficially suggest an apparently clear-cut psychiatric disorder. Although this occurs rarely in behaviorally disturbed populations, the presence of psychiatric or cognitive symptoms with such tumors is frequent; the exact symptoms depend upon such factors as the location of the tumor, the rate of growth, the stage of development, and the effects of brain organization and metabolism as a whole (Lishman, 1978).
