Spearman's correlations related to resected volume (tumor + margin in cc), age at surgery and time elapsed between surgery and evaluation variables and all assessed neuropsychological variables for the astrocytoma and medulloblastoma groups.

ASTROCYTOMA (n = 13) Spearman Correlations	RESECTED VOLUME (mean = 49.23 ± 26.97 cc)

Semantic Fluency	-0.551, p = 0,026
Rey-Exactness	-0.572, p = 0.020
Dentate nucleus affected	0.602, p = 0.015
ASTROCYTOMA (n = 13) Spearman Correlations	AGE AT SURGERY (mean = 8.24 ± 3.95)
