Already in 1860, the great neurologist Charcot described the symptom spasticity in patients affected by "sclerose en plaque". Spasticity is one of the most common symptoms of multiple sclerosis MS). The consequences of spasticity are very disadvantages because it hinders the functional mobility and overburden disability. Moreover, in the later stages of MS spasticity may be complicated by seating problems, pressure sores, fibrous contractures and poor perineal hygiene. In this article, the therapeutical management of MS spasticity, in all its components (pharmacological, rehabilitative, surgical) is reviewed.
