Resumo: <p>In this text we describe a case report of a 60 years old patient with a 12 hour anterograde memory disturbance and a complete resolution of this symptom after. The presenting symptom, a complete and spontaneous recovery and the exclusion of other neurologic conditions were consistent with the diagnosis of transient global amnesia (TGA). Transient global amnesia generally causes profound upset in the patients and their families although it is considered a benign condition. The physiopathology is yet to be elucidaded and the incidence is higher in the elderly. Memory complaints are very much discussed in this age group although the TGA is not much debated in geriatrics.</p>
