Abstract
This study aims to evaluate the clinical patterns and demographic characteristics of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) among Libyan patients. A case series descriptive study was conducted at Tripoli University Hospital, including 101 patients diagnosed according to McDonald’s criteria between 2010 and 2024. Demographic and clinical data were collected from medical records. Females represented 64.4% of patients, with a peak age of onset between 26 and 35 years. The most common initial presentation was sensory symptoms, particularly numbness (19.8%), followed by decreased visual acuity (18.8%). Many cases were sporadic. These findings demonstrate that MS in Libya shows patterns like global data, with female predominance and young adult onset. The results highlight the need for further large-scale studies to better understand disease characteristics in the Libyan population
