Memory disorder in vertebrobasilar disease.

G A Donnan, K W Walsh, P F Bladin

    Clinical and Experimental Neurology
    |January 1, 1978

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Central limbic structures are key to axial amnesia. This study links vertebrobasilar insufficiency to similar memory loss, aiding diagnosis.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuroscience
    • Neurology
    • Cerebrovascular Medicine

    Background:

    • The central core limbic structures are recognized as critical for axial/mesial amnesia.
    • Posterior cerebral circulation primarily supplies these memory-associated brain regions.

    Observation:

    • Benson previously linked amnesic stroke to posterior cerebral artery occlusion.
    • This research investigated a similar amnesic syndrome in patients with vertebrobasilar insufficiency.

    Findings:

    • Patients with vertebrobasilar insufficiency exhibited axial amnesia, confirmed by Wechsler Memory Scale testing.
    • The amnesic syndrome showed relative permanence upon repeat testing.

    Implications:

    • Vertebrobasilar insufficiency may be a cause of axial amnesia.
  • Identifying this amnesia pattern can assist in diagnosing vertebrobasilar insufficiency.
