Neuropsychological outcome comparison between dominant and nondominant SelAH and ATL surgical groups.

	Dominant SelAH (n = 8)	Dominant ATL (n = 12)	Nondominant SelAH (n = 9)	Nondominant ATL (n = 25)
Change verbal memory PC	−0.7 (1.3)	−0.5 (0.8)	0.2 (0.5)	0.4 (0.7)
Change visuospatial memory PC	0.2 (0.6)	0.3 (0.8)	0.1 (1.2)	0.3 (1.0)
Change IQ PC	−0.4 (0.9)	0.0 (0.8)	−0.2 (0.7)	0.1 (1.0)
Change BNT	−1.0 (7.0)	−4.0 (8.6)	0.1 (2.7)	−0.6 (4.7)

Note: change in BNT for the dominant ATL group is based on N = 11. PC: principal component score; BNT is postop-preop total score. Mean and standard deviation for PC and naming scores; no differences are observed between SelAH and ATL in the dominant groups or in the nondominant groups (P > 0.31).
