Résumé

Cognitive impairment is frequent in patients with high-grade glioma and requires cognitive follow-up. Cognitive screening tools such as the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) have been used to assess cognition in these patients. Here we assessed the sensitivity of the MoCA in screening for cognitive impairment in a cohort of 156 patients with newly-diagnosed high-grade glioma, after surgery and before radiochemotherapy.
