There was one episode of ST:TNG in which Commander Riker experienced a faulty transporter which did not dematerialize his planetary self when Riker beamed back up to the Enterprise. Of course, he was completely unaware of it so was shocked when, years later, he returned to that planet and met a fairly bitter carbon copy of himself.
