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.

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.

Practical Neurology, 2013A 68-year-old woman presented following an episode of witnessed sudden-onset memory loss after lifting a heavy plant while gardening. Her husband's description of the event suggested that there was retrograde and anterograde amnesia with repetitive questioning. Speech, motor function and vision were unaffected.

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 ...

To the Editor. —Suranyi 1 recently noted that there are no reports of illegal activity during an episode of transient global amnesia (TGA) and he called for any examples of such behavior to determine if it could, in fact, occur. My own review also failed to identify any cases of criminal activity during TGA, but a recent patient is of interest in this

Aetiology of transient global amnesia
The Lancet, 1998The pathophysiology of transient global amnesia (TGA) has been obscure since the definition of this syndrome more than 30 years ago. Current hypotheses include migraine, seizure, or transient cerebral arterial ischaemia. However, none of these potential mechanisms explain both the absence of other neurological signs or symptoms during TGA, and its ...

Transient Global Amnesia (TGA) is a clinical syndrome characterized by temporary inability to form new memories described as anterograde amnesia. It is associated with retrograde amnesia and repetitive questioning. During the attack patients remain conscious and communicative and personal identity is preserved. Focal neurological symptoms and epileptic
