Henry Molaison, after his operation, could remember Dr. Scoville, the doctor that had operated on him, vaguely because of their pre-op chats. Henry could remember memories from his childhood, however memories from just before the operation were incomplete.
Providing Henry was not distracted and through continual rehearsal Henry could remember the number 584 for 15 minutes before forgetting. It was also discovered that Molaison could recieve perceptual stimuli perfectly normally, however within 30-40 seconds it became unavailable to him.
