Transient global amnesia is often attributed to a seizure, vascular cause, or migraine, but the outcome is usually benign. The presence of migraine and important risk factors for stroke necessitates close patient monitoring. Anti-platelet therapy should be considered.

Thalamic Amnesia Mimicking Transient Global Amnesia
The Neurologist, 2015Transient global amnesia is a benign syndrome and one of the most frequent discharges from the emergency department that can hardly be distinguished from other mimicking diseases. No consensus in the evaluation of transient global amnesia has yet been found in the emergency setting.We describe a 69-year-old woman who presented to our emergency ...

3 cases of transient global amnesia (TGA) are reported. Transient ischaemia is probably the cause of the condition in the majority of cases although other mechanisms, particularly epilepsy, may be responsible in some. TGA may not be reported by the patient and may be misdiagnosed as a psychiatric disturbance. An acute confusional or delirious state can

Transient Global Amnesia in Migraine
Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, 1979SYNOPSIS The clinical features of five migraine patients, suffering one to several episodes of transient global amnesia (TGA), were evaluated. All patients were women, with an age range of 34 to 67 years. One patient had common, and four, classical migraine. Two patients had typical vertebro‐basilar migraine; two others had previously

Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 1983
The syndrome of transient global amnesia (TGA) is defined and described. Characteristic features, epidemical data, variables possibly provoking TGA, its possible etiology and anatomical basis are reviewed. A transient disturbance in the formation of lasting new memories (usually of less than one day) and a retrograde amnesia (which includes the period ...

Neurologic Clinics, 2011
Transient global amnesia syndrome was initially described more than a century ago. Although the clinical syndrome is easily recognized and highly consistent in its characteristic features, the underlying pathophysiology has remained elusive. Proposed mechanisms include focal ischemic lesions or local nonischemic energy failures.

Journal of Neuroscience Nursing, 1989
Transient global amnesia is a benign, self-limiting disorder primarily involving a disturbance of memory. It occurs in late middle and older aged adults. Patients with this syndrome do not have a history of head trauma, drug or alcohol intoxication, hypoglycemia or psychologic dysfunction.

Transient Global Amnesia Syndrome
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1971A patient with transient global amnesia was studied during the acute phase of the attack. The condition is a definite and easily recognized entity characterized by two phases. There is inability to encode recent memories, accompanied by retrograde amnesia of variable duration, with remarkable preservation of recall of distant events.

Retrograde amnesia during transient global amnesia
Neurocase, 1996Abstract Two patients who met Hodges' clinical criteria for transient global amnesia (TGA) were given anterograde and retrograde memory tests during and after the attack. A SPECT scan was performed during TGA in one case, showing a reduced blood flow confined to the bilateral medial temporal lobes, which resolved on the next day.
