In this series, the authors report the clinical presentation, management, and postoperative course of three patients with right hemisphere Heschl gyrus gliomas, one of whom developed difficulty with music production and comprehension postoperatively.</jats:p> <jats:p content-type="fine-print">Resection of right hemisphere Heschl gyrus gliomas can result in deficits involving music comprehension.
