Fornix infarction

 This patient presented with amnesia. MRI revealed fornix infarction. The fornix plays an important role in the human memory by connecting the hippocampus with other structures involved with memory, including the anterior thalami, septal nuclei, and mammillary bodies. Amnesia, resulting from lesions involving the fornix, has been attributed to the damage of this vital link.Famous Radiology Blog http://www.sumerdoc.blogspot.com
