See this aricle in Pubmed
Article Abstract
Resective surgery for left-sided intracranial tumours significantly improves language function in dysphasic patients,and is unlikely to impair language functions in non-dysphasic patients.Dysphasia and its response to resective surgery are related to the tumour neuropathology.
