Popis: The principal study objective was to define whether memory deficits (numerical, working, verbal-mechanical, verbal-logical and visual memory) occurred in patients submitted to surgery for brain artery aneurysm and whether significant recovery of memory took place with time. The study sample included 92 patients, i.e. 35 (38%) male and 57 (62%) female patients aged 27 to 76 years. Neuropsychological testing was conducted at Zagreb University Hospital Centre, Department of Neurosurgery, from 1998 to 2012, in two time intervals: first within 11 months following surgery, and then 12 to 48 months after surgery. The obtained results showed that verbal-mechanical, verballogical, and visual memory deficits were present in the first testing interval. In the second testing, the verbal-logical and visual memory deficits were still present, while the tests of verbal-mechanical memory showed deficits in capacity and learning curve, but the results for short- and long-term memory were within the normal ranges. Neither the first nor the second testing showed deficits of numerical and working memory. Based on our results, we can conclude that long-term verbal-mechanical and visual short- and long-term memory had recovered to a statistically significant level, whereas other types of memory showed no significant recovery.
Glavni cilj ovog istraživanja bio je utvrditi postoje li u bolesnika nakon operacije aneurizme moždanih arterija deficiti mnestičkih funkcija (numeričkog, radnog, verbalno-mehaničkog, verbalno-logičkog i vizualnog pamćenja) i dolazi li tijekom vremena proteklog od operacije do oporavka mnestičkih funkcija. U istraživanju je sudjelovalo 92 bolesnika, i to 35 (38%) muškaraca i 57 (62%) žena, u dobi od 27 do 76 godina. Neuropsihologijska procjena provedena je u Klinici za neurokirurgiju Kliničkog bolničkog centra Zagreb u razdoblju od 1998. do 2012. godine u dva vremenska intervala: u prvih 11 mjeseci nakon operacije i ponovno 12 do 48 mjeseci nakon operacije. Dobiveni rezultati su pokazali da u prvom vremenskom intervalu postoje deficiti verbalno-mehaničkog, verbalno-logičkog i vizualnog pamćenja. U drugom vremenskom intervalu i dalje su bili prisutni deficiti verbalno-logičkog i vizualnog pamćenja, dok su na testu verbalno-mehaničkog učenja i pamćenja dobiveni rezultati pokazali da i dalje postoje poteškoće povezane s kapacitetom pamćenja i krivuljom učenja, a rezultati ispitivanja kratkoročnog i dugoročnog verbalno-mehaničkog pamćenja sada su bili u granicama očekivanih rezultata. Niti u prvom niti u drugom testiranju nije utvrđeno postojanje deficita numeričkog i radnog pamćenja. S obzirom na dobivene rezultate ovog istraživanja može se zaključiti da su se kratkoročno i dugoročno verbalno-mehaničko i vizualno pamćenje statistički značajno oporavili tijekom vremena proteklog od operacije, dok na testovima drugih vrsta pamćenja nije utvrđeno postojanje statistički značajnog oporavka.
