- Abstract
- We describe a case of anterograde and retrograde amnesia resulting from probable herpes simplex encephalitis. In retrograde amnesia, dissociations not only between episodic and semantic memories, but also between semantic memories for personal and public things were observed. We postulated, using FDG-PET, that the former was caused by mesial temporal lesions, based on 'multiple trace theory', and the latter, by bilateral lateral temporal lesions, which were probably related to the retrieval of semantic memory, especially for public things. KeyWords:Retrograde amnesia, Dissociation, Fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET)
