What are the side effects of an amygdalectomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Emotions...: The amygdala is and integral part of the limbic system in the brain deeply connected to emotional processing, learning, and memory. Having the amygdala removed would result in serious emotional deficits. For interesting background info, look at work if J. Ledoux, A. Damasio, and historical perspectives of the Cannon-Bard and James-Lange theories of emotion.
