The globus pallidus and putamen are highly vascular structures, because of that, they are more sensitive to the metabolic changes in the brain. In the evaluation of nonketotic hyperglycemia and differential diagnosis with imaging findings is in the globus pallidus and nucleus caudatus usually symmetrically and bilaterally but rarely unilaterally hyperattenuating on non-enhanced computed tomography (NECT) and hyperintensity on T1-weighted magnetic resonance images (MRI) have been reported. In this report, we aimed to present poorly controlled diabetic patients that have been admitted to the emergency service with uncontrolled movements defined as chorea.
