Popis: Purpose The aim of the study was to evaluate the cognitive functions and seizure outcomes of patients with low-grade epilepsy-associated neuroepithelial tumors (LEATs). Methods We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of patients who underwent preoperative neuropsychological evaluations and subsequent epilepsy surgery for LEATs. The neuropsychological results of full-scaled intelligence quotient (FSIQ) and full-scaled memory quotient (FSMQ) were analyzed, as well as the postoperative seizure outcomes. Results Of the 138 patients included in the study, 59 patients (40.4%) were female and 47 (36.6%) patients were children. Preoperatively, 138 patients received FSIQ assessments and 30 patients (21.7%) had an intellectual deficit (FSIQ
