Korsakoff's Syndrome is an amnestic disorder that involves both anterograde and retrograde amnesia. Traditionally associated with longstanding alcohol misuse, thiamine deficiency has been long posited in its pathogenesis, as has dienecephalic lesions. Yet, through this case report, we highlight similarities (and differences) with medial temporal lobe memory disorders and the role of frontal lobe dysfunction in its retrograde amnesia.
科萨科夫综合征是一种涉及顺行性和逆行性失忆的遗忘症。传统上与长期滥用酒精有关,硫胺素缺乏长期以来一直被认为在其发病机制中起作用,间脑病变也是如此。然而,通过本病例报告,我们强调了它与内侧颞叶记忆障碍的异同,以及额叶功能障碍在其逆行性失忆中的作用。
