What ever is the neurological deficit, keep in mind that there may be the deficits that may remain permanently after surgery due to the effects of surgery that might have caused damage to the brain cells. That could be the permanet damage. And there might be the neurological dysfunction that may be the oedema of the surrounding neural tissue of being excised. So there still are the chances, that the remaining neurones may be in good function when that oedema resolves. Also don't forget the development of alternative path ways. Do a good neurological assessments to assess the disabilities, abilities and needs of the patient & make a suitable plan of Physiotherapy according to that.

Do the assessment of followings:

Sensory Assessment

Co ordination assessment

Motor assessment

Gait analysis

Functional assessment

Environmental assessment

Psychosocial assessment

Orthotic assessement

Make your strategies to improve motor control and motor relearning accordingly.
