Abstract
In this paper we studied the neurological polymorbidity in a group of 467 hospitalized patients of more than 70 years of age. A disorder of the central nervous system (CNS) was of the principal mainly diagnosis in 393 cases, the peripheral nervous system (PNS) in 71 cases and in 3 cases a myopathy. In 77.9%, the various neurological disorders were within the CNS, including mainly cerebrovascular events (226 cases, 48%). Among 156 patients, there was an accompanying disorder of the PNS.
