Abstract: This thesis demonstrates that long-term brain tumor survivors suffer from several late effects of their disease and their treatment many years after having been cured. Not only survivors who were treated with surgery and adjuvant therapy, but also survivors who were treated with surgery only can experience several late effects. Systematic aftercare is needed to monitor (neuro)psychological functioning and needs, to screen and identify survivors at risk and to be able to provide adequate aftercare in time.
