title: [Epileptic seizures in multiple sclerosis].
abstract: Starting from informations in the literature, the authors deals with eight own cases, suffering from clinically certain multiple sclerosis and showing, as a further sign, epileptic seizures. Compared to the total of patients, these eight cases represent 1.78 p.c. of all patients treated for multiple sclerosis in this clinic. The features of seizures, frequency and dynamics of occurrence are referred to. The authors point out that it is necessary to differential between epileptic seizures and non-epileptic attacks, and they draw attention to the fact that here are difficulties with regard to differential diagnosis if epileptic seizure appears as a initial symptom of multiple sclerosis.
