Abstract
There have been numerous studies of routine CSF parameters (cells, total protein, IgA, IgM, absolute and relative IgG content) with different symptom constellations and the course of MS (1–5). In this report the CSF findings in patients with MS and optic neuritis were registered using a detailed documentation system of clinical symptoms and CSF data; a comparison of the results was made.
