We report a patient with a generalized frontal-predominant nonconvulsive
status epilepticus
without clinically apparent altered consciousness. The patient was examined and EEG performed during and after the episode. Severe retrograde and anterograde amnesia during the seizure, contrasting with a preservation of ongoing memories formation that could be assessed only after its resolution, suggests a transient disconnection of access to stored representations. This unusual
memory disorder
is both clinically and electrographically dissimilar to other reported cases of transient epileptic amnesia. Although the patient probably had numerous episodes previously, there was no history of overt seizure.
