The modern era of research into the neurobehavioral late effects of pediatric brain tumor has been one of refinement in outcome measurement and advances in identification of risk factors for neurobehavioral impairment. There is no neuropsychological phenotype that encompasses all tumor types, treatments, and risk factors, though attention, working memory, processing speed, new learning, visuospatial and visuomotor functioning, executive functioning, and areas of academic achievement have been found to be at particular risk. Additional socioemotional and broader quality of life problems have been found in both survivors and their families. Past research has identified neuropsychological risk factors that include tumor location, radiation therapy and dose, certain chemotherapy agents, neurological complications, and demographic factors such as young age and female gender. Recent refinement in measurement of risk is improving our prediction of neurobehavioral outcomes. Neuropsychological and psychosocial interventions are now being developed, and the evidence base supporting these interventions is growing. Simultaneous advances in each of these areas will facilitate translation of research into risk-adapted rehabilitative care such that resources can be most effectively re-allocated and the best possible outcomes achieved.
