We present a case report of transient global amnesia (TGA) after vaccinating the third dose of coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19). A 65-year-old Japanese woman presented with TGA after her third vaccination, which spontaneously resolved. This article aims to facilitate the clinicians' understanding that TGA could occur after the COVID-19 vaccination in the COVID-19 global outbreak.



Conclusions: We experienced the case with TGA after the third COVID-19 vaccination. A 65-year-old Japanese woman showed TGA after her third vaccination, which spontaneously resolved. This article aims to facilitate the clinicians’ understanding that TGA could occur after vaccination in the COVID-19 global outbreak. We should be careful of TGA after vaccination. More reports are needed to investigate pathogenesis and neuroimaging findings in such TGA patients.
