ABSTRACT
Clinically rare with an acute or subacute onset,Hashimoto's encephalopathy (HE) is characterized as autoimmune encephalopathy with elevated anti-thyroid autoantibodies.If timely diagnosed and treated,its prognosis is often fair.Four HE cases admitted from January 2012 to June 2014 were analyzed with a literature review.HE 4 cases had a significantly higher level of thyroperoxidase (TPO) while the lowest increase over four folds.There were cognitive decline,memory loss and even coma.And 50% had abnormal electroencephalogram (EEG) consistent with radiographic lesions.In short,EEG may aid an early diagnosis of HE.
