Hippocampal damage and Memory dysfunction

Hi. 

Does anyone know of case reports in which hippocampal damage restricted to
or predominantly involving specific subfields has been related to memory
dysfunction. I am aware of some literature dealing with hippocampal damage
and memory dysfunction following ischemia or limbic encephalitis. However,
those studies mostly reported diffuse damage or complete destruction of
hippocampal structures. 

Thanks
Heinz
