Memory Loss - a Case of Sudden Amnesia Abstract. Transient global amnesia (TGA) is a clinical diagnosis with typical signs of an anterograde and retrograde amnesia. The underlying mechanisms are yet unknown, different hypotheses are being discussed. Ultimately there is a temporary dysfunction of the hippocampi. Consistent with this, transient uni- or bilateral punctiform hyperintense lesions may be found on DWI-MRI sequences, usually without correlation on FLAIR-weighthed MR-images. Symptoms usually resolve within twenty-four hours. There is no need for a specific therapy. A prophylactic therapy, such as antithrombotic treatment, is not indicated. The prognosis is usually good, the risk of a recurrence is about 18%.
