Hashimoto's encephalopathy (HE) is a rare neurological disorder. Early diagnosis and treatment are critical to prevent irreversible brain damage. In the present study, we aimed to describe and classify HE on the basis of clinical, neuroimaging, and EEG findings. ⋯ Four of these patients had accompanying metabolic disturbances. HE is a treatable neurologic disorder with different subtypes, each with its own clinical manifestations and treatment options. HE can be difficult to identify and requires careful and attentive clinical observation for diagnosis.
