Case report shows significant improvement in postoperative aphasia using rTMS and speech therapy, highlighting potential benefits.

Post-treatment, the patient's aphasia improved from an AAT score of 196 to 386 over three months, demonstrating the effectiveness of rTMS.
Combined treatment with rTMS and speech language therapy resulted in substantial aphasia recovery, suggesting a novel rehabilitation approach.
Bilateral rTMS was administered continuously over seven days to address worsening aphasia after tumor resection, resulting in significant language recovery.
Further validation through larger cohorts and randomized controlled trials is required to confirm the effectiveness of this emerging treatment option.

Neymeyer et al. (2025) studied this question.
