title: [Prognosis and life expectancy in multiple sclerosis].
abstract: Prognosis and life expectancy of patients with multiple sclerosis can be judged according to disability state, to duration and course of the disease on the basis of regular examinations. Assuming that life expectancy is reduced--collectively--by 10 to 15 years, it should be possible to find some form of life insurance for patients with multiple sclerosis also.
