This study was aimed at assessing the interest of middle latency auditory evoked potentials (MLAEP) recordings in multiple sclerosis (MS). Brainstem auditory evoked potentials (BAEP) and MLAEP were recorded in 40 control subjects and 65 patients who had MS according to Poser's criteria. Na and Pa latencies were significantly delayed in the MS group. These abnormalities were detected in 60% of the patients. In 26% of the cases with normal BAEP, abnormalities of MLAEP were present. In 71% of the patients abnormalities of both BAEP and MLAEP were observed. These results suggest the ability of MLAEP recordings to detect lesions of the auditory pathways rostral to the pons and show the value of their combined recordings in MS patients.
