[EOG findings in patients with multiple sclerosis]

Electroculography (EOG) is useful in the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS), a common disorder. We reviewed the EOG recordings of 192 patients with MS (98 definite, 29 probable, 65 possible diagnoses) to evaluate spontaneous nystagmus, rotation tests, positional tests, vestibulo-ocular reflex visual suppression (VOR), optokinetic nystagmus, saccades and pursuit tracking. The most frequent findings were abnormalities in the pursuit tracking, saccade dysmetria and vestibulo-ocular reflex suppression disorders. Results are discussed and the literature is reviewed.
