INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to investigate long-term neurocognitive, psychological, and return to work (RTW) outcomes in meningioma patients, and to explore whether neurocognitive and psychological factors influence RTW outcomes in this population.
METHODS: In this retrospective study, 61 meningioma patients completed in-depth clinical neuropsychological assessments. Of these participants, 42 were of working-age and had RTW information available following neuropsychological assessment. Seventy-one percent and 80% of patients received radiation and surgery, respectively, with 49% receiving both radiation and surgery. Associations between demographic, medical, neurocognitive, psychological, and RTW data were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression analyses.
RESULTS: In our sample, 68% of patients exhibited global neurocognitive impairment, with the largest effect sizes found on tests of visual memory (d = 0.73), executive function (d = 0.61), and attention (d = 0.54). Twenty-seven percent exhibited moderate to severe levels of depressive symptoms. In addition, 23% and 30% exhibited clinically significant state and trait anxiety, respectively. Forty-eight percent of patients were unable to RTW. Younger age, faster visuomotor processing speed, and, unexpectedly, higher trait anxiety scores were associated with an increased likelihood of returning to work.
CONCLUSIONS: Meningioma patients are at risk of experiencing neurocognitive deficits, psychological symptoms, and difficulties returning to work. Our results suggest that neurocognitive and psychological factors contribute to RTW status in meningioma patients. Prospective research studies are necessary to increase our understanding of the complexity of functional disability in this growing population.
