我们描述了一位 50 岁的女性 Angie 的案例，她在 1985 年遭受闭合性头部损伤后患有严重健忘症（一般记忆指数 = 49，满量程智商 = 126）。与文献中报道的其他案例相比，该案例的独特之处在于，尽管她的健忘症很严重，但她已经发展了卓越的现实生活能力，表现出令人印象深刻的自我意识和对各种功能性记忆能力损伤和保留的洞察力，并表现出持续的成熟能力。失忆后她的身份和自我意识。该案例提供了对不同记忆和认知系统在处理现实世界记忆需求时的相互作用的见解，并对健忘症后的康复和成功的生活结果具有影响。
We describe the case of Angie, a 50-year-old woman with profound amnesia (General Memory Index = 49, Full Scale IQ = 126) following a closed head injury in 1985. This case is unique in comparison to other cases reported in the literature in that, despite the severity of her amnesia, she has developed remarkable real-world life abilities, shows impressive self-awareness and insight into the impairment and sparing of various functional memory abilities, and exhibits ongoing maturation of her identity and sense of self following amnesia. The case provides insights into the interaction of different memory and cognitive systems in handling real-world memory demands and has implications for rehabilitation and for successful life outcome after amnesia.
