Hashimoto's Encephalopathy: A Rare Cause of Seizure-like Activity.

Hashimoto's encephalopathy is an uncommon disorder that may present with a wide variety of different neurological signs and symptoms that can include acute altered level of consciousness, psychosis, seizures, ataxia, dementia, myoclonus, and stupor. We present a case of a 60-year-old female patient who was admitted to the internal medicine floor for workup for seizures of unknown etiology. Investigations, including a complete blood count, basic metabolic panel, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, cerebrospinal fluid analysis, and NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor encephalitis screen, were all unremarkable.
