[Gustatory disturbances in multiple sclerosis].
90 patients with advanced multiple sclerosis were examined electrogustometrically and with taste solutions. In 4 cases only the bitter sensation was diminished all over the tongue. 4 other patients showed a prolonged latency. Besides a unilateral dissociated hypogenusia in 4 patients there were no further serious taste disturbances. One man showed a taste and sensory hyperpathia on one side of the body.
