  1. Data are presented as number (%) unless otherwise specified
  2. Impaired cognitive domain was defined as scores below 1 standard deviation of the age, gender, and education specific norm
  3. IQR interquartile range, MTA medial temporal atrophy, SD standard deviation
  4. aData for 12 cases were excluded since the tumor was not extended to cerebrum (3 intraventricular, 8 skull base, 1 infratentorial)
