Suleiman 2013 Seizures can occur in Hashimoto’s encephalopathy, which is a rare association of autoimmune Hashimoto’s thyroiditis associated with Abs against thyroid peroxidase and thyroglobulin (Castillo et al., 2006). Patients described with Hashimoto encephalopathy present with broad clinical manifestations and are classically reported to be steroid responsive. The role of thyroid antibodies in Hashimoto encephalopathy is uncertain, and the term “steroid responsive encephalopathy associated with autoimmune thyroiditis” (SREAT) has been used to reflect the hypothesis that Hashimoto encephalopathy may be caused by unidentified neuronal autoantibodies (Castillo et al., 2002; Schauble et al., 2003). |
