In 129 patients with multiple sclerosis (61 men and 68 women) anthropometric measurements were taken and 5 somatic indices calculated. The types of somatic constitution and the so-called somatic composition were determined using the method of reference points of Wanke. The results were compared with those in a control group representing the Polish population and with a group of patients with psoriasis. The usual male patient with multiple sclerosis was of athletic-pyknic constitution with very strongly expressed (in relation to the control group) features of dysplastic type (A). The typical male individual from the control group had pyknic-athletic constitution. The typical female patient with multiple sclerosis had leptosomic-dysplastic constitution, while the typical control female was leptosomic-pyknic. Male and female patients with multiple sclerosis had the hyperbrachycephalic skull configuration while the control group was branchycephalic. There was no difference between controls and patients with multiple sclerosis with regard to blood groups A1, A2, B, O and Rh.
