Abstrakt:	Objective: In this retrospective, cross-sectional study we aimed to examine long-term memory deficits and gray matter volumes (GMV) in the hippocampus after transient global amnesia (TGA). Methods: 20 patients with a history of TGA (TGA+, mean 6.5 years after TGA) and 20 age-matched healthy controls (TGA-) underwent neurocognitive assessment (i.e. Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), visuospatial, verbal and episodic autobiographical memory and visuospatial learning/navigation ["human water maze"]) in combination with structural cerebral MRI. Voxel-based morphometry (VBM) was used to detect GMV in the hippocampus in TGA+ versus TGA-. Results: Besides slight differences in MMSE and visuo-spatial learning/navigation measured with a human water maze in TGA+ vs. TGA-, no other tests of visuo-spatial, verbal and autobiographical long-term memory differed between groups. VBM analyses yielded a statistically significant difference in bilateral hippocampal GMV with TGA+ compared to TGA- showing greater GMV in a region corresponding to bilateral CA1. However, none of the hippocampus-dependent cognitive measures correlated with hippocampal GMV. Conclusion: In the long-term course after TGA, only subtle neurocognitive deficits without microstructural damage of the hippocampus could be detected. Greater GMV in bilateral hippocampus in TGA+ vs. TGA- may indicate that TGA triggers hippocampal GMV increase rather than atrophy. (Copyright © 2021 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier Inc.
