Abstract：Objective To evaluate the memory function of patients with temporal lobe glioma after surgery , and to analyze the influencing factors of memory dysfunction .Methods The study included 37 patients with temporal lobe glioma in the department of neurosurgery of our hospital .Chinese revised Wechsler Memory Scale for memory function e-valuation was assessed 3 months after surgery in all patients .Results All the patients completed China revised Wechsler Memory Scale.The results showed that the long term memory was 27.28 ±2.72, short-term memory was 51.15 ±3.63, instantaneous memory was 8.98 ±1.84, and memory quotient ( MQ) was 82.42 ±8.31.Compared with normal norm , the short-term memory and the MQ of the patients with temporal lobe glioma were significantly lower (P<0.05).According to the comparative analysis of different factors , pathological type , tumor size , radiotherapy history and epilepsy were corre-lated with the memory dysfunction in these patients .Conclusion The memory disorders of patients with temporal lobe gli-oma are significantly correlated to the short -term memory impairment , which may be correlated with the pathological type, the size of the lesion, the presence of epilepsy, and other factors.
