Here, we report a 60\u2010year\u2010old male patient who presented with a sudden onset of disorientation and short\u2010term memory loss and started to ask about his whereabouts and what happened. He had no significant past medical or psychiatric disorder. Likewise, the patient did not have a recent history of head trauma, substance abuse, loss of consciousness, seizure disorder, or migraine. Neurologic examination was normal except for mild disorientation and short\u2010term memory impairment. He had a score of 18\/30 on the mini\u2010mental state examination. Extensive laboratory investigations did not show any abnormal findings. Brain MRI and EEG were normal. His memory improved and returned to a normal baseline within 24\u2009h from the onset. After the exclusion of potential causes and the patient returned to a normal state of memory, the diagnosis of transient global amnesia was made. At the follow\u2010up visit, the patient was in a state of normal function without a recurrence of memory impairment. Here, we presented this interesting case of transient global amnesia. TGA is a diagnosis of exclusion and is essential to keep in mind when evaluating a patient with acute onset of short\u2010term memory impairment, especially when etiological investigations reveal no potential cause.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ccr3.6533","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,24]],"date-time":"2022-11-24T07:59:53Z","timestamp":1669276793000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Transient global amnesia: Uncommon diagnosis of exclusion"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"10","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7236-1524","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohamed","family":"Sheikh Hassan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology Mogadishu Somalia Turkish Training and Research Hospital  Mogadishu Somalia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6039-5054","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nor","family":"Osman Sidow","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Neurology Mogadishu Somalia Turkish Training and Research Hospital  Mogadishu Somalia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nur","family":"Adam Mohamed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychiatry Mogadishu Somalia Turkish Training and Research Hospital  Mogadishu Somalia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.mayocp.2014.12.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.mayocp.2016.11.015"},{"issue":"19","key":"e_1_2_11_4_1","first-page":"288","article-title":"Transient global amnesia\u2010not so rare after all","volume":"139","author":"Berli R","year":"2009","journal-title":"Swiss Med Wkly"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/brain\/113.3.639"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0404.1990.tb01571.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/ene.12346"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2147\/NDT.S130710"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jnnp.53.10.834"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1468-1331.2004.00982.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/brain\/awl105"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000341554"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/01.STR.26.9.1536"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(98)01442-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000354023"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000292502"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jnnp.2004.042432"}],"container-title":["Clinical Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/ccr3.6533","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1002\/ccr3.6533","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/ccr3.6533","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,27]],"date-time":"2025-11-27T14:16:54Z","timestamp":1764253014000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/ccr3.6533"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2022,11]]},"references-count":16,"journal-issue":{"issue":"11","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2022,11]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/ccr3.6533"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/ccr3.6533","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["2050-0904","2050-0904"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"2050-0904"},{"type":"electronic","value":"2050-0904"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2022,11]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2022-08-30","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2022-10-15","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2022-11-23","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}],"article-number":"e6533"}}
