Transient epileptic amnesia is an under-recognized but treatable cause of transient memory impairment and accelerated long-term forgetting and autobiographical amnesia, which are invisible to standard memory tests, help to explain the discrepancy between normal test performance and prominent memory complaints among patients with epilepsy.

It is concluded that transient epileptic amnesia is a distinctive syndrome of late-onset limbic epilepsy of unknown cause, typically occurring in late middle age, and is an important, treatable cause of memory loss in older people.

Transient epileptic amnesia is a clearly defined subtype of temporal lobe epilepsy however underdiagnosed and responds very well to treatment with anti-epileptic drugs, and should be seriously considered as a diagnostic option.

A broad range of memory tests were used to clarify the extent and nature of the remote memory deficits in patients with transient epileptic amnesia, providing evidence for the occurrence of 'focal retrograde amnesia' in transient epilept amnesia.

30 patients with adult‐senile onset of a severe memory complaint that started before or at the same time as stereotyped seizures with only short loss of contact and automatisms are described, with attacks of transient anteroretrograde amnesia after the seizures.

It is suggested that an epileptic origin be entertained in patients presenting repeated amnesic attacks resembling TGA or who complain of persistent memory disturbance, after more common etiologies have been excluded.

The memory impairment in STEA does not originate from a progressive neurodegenerative mechanism, but rather from an underlying epileptic and therefore reversible etiology, and when identified and treated carries no memory impairment at 2 years after diagnosis.

Assessment of the relationship between subjective and objective memory performance in patients with transient epileptic amnesia added weight to the hypothesis that TEA is a syndrome of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy and suggests that although standard anterograde memory test performance is related to the degree of mesia temporal lobe damage, this is not true for ALF and autobiographical amnesia.

The literature on three recently described and interrelated forms of memory impairment associated with epilepsy are reviewed: transient epileptic amnesia, in which the sole or main manifestation of seizures is recurrent episodes of amnesia; accelerated long-term forgetting and remote memory impairment.
