Acute Korsakoff-like amnestic syndrome resulting from left thalamic infarction following a right hippocampal hemorrhage.

Korsakoff-like amnestic syndromes have been rarely described following structural lesions of the central nervous system.

We also review the literature relevant to the neuropathology and pathophysiology of Korsakoff syndrome and anterograde amnesia.
