Speech and other functions after left (dominant) hemispherectomy.
Open accessAbstract
The development of hemispherectomy for glioma (mostly in adults) by Dandy (1928) and later for infantile hemiplegia by Krynauw (1950) permitted comparisons of effects of removal of either hemi-sphere on both the adult and young brain. Reviews of over 300 cases of hemispherectomy (e.g., White, 1961; McFie, 1961) reflect the 'functional plasticity' of the young brain. Continuing development of higher and lower level cerebral functions after right or left hemispherectomy in children with gliomas as well as infantile hemiplegia has been reported by most writers. A 10-year-old left-handed girl (Gardner Karnosh, McClure, and Gardner, 1955) and a 14-year-old right-handed boy (Hillier, 1954) were re-ported living 53 and 27 months respectively with

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
