ABSTRACT
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a common demyelination disease of the central nervous system. MS is often accompanied by various mental disorders, which seriously affect the quality of life of patients. In this paper, a case of multiple sclerosis with recurrent mental symptoms such as auditory hallucinations,depression and grandiose delusion was reviewed. He was diagnosed as a mental disorder caused by multiple sclerosis, and his mental symptoms were relieved after treatment with psychotropic drugs, but the symptoms of multiple sclerosis recurred. This case suggests that psychiatric symptoms may play a certain role in the occurrence and development of multiple sclerosis, which is a dimension of clinical symptoms worthy of special attention.
