Résumé

In France, the risk of multiple sclerosis is considered medium to high risk. Several incidence and prevalence studies have been performed at regional and national levels. Prevalence is evaluated between 143 and 60 per 100 000 inhabitants. Prevalence of multiple sclerosis is higher in northeastern France. Incidence varies between 4.1 and 8.2 per 100 000 inhabitants depending on the region. In certain regions such as Lorraine, incidence among women seems to be on the rise.
