We report a patient with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), who developed bilateral severe tongue weakness due to the anterior opercular syndrome. This was caused by a recent inflammatory demyelinating lesion in the right perisylvian juxtacortical region, superimposed on a pre-existing left perisylvian lesion, which had previously caused temporary isolated right tongue weakness. Multiple Sclerosis 2007; 13: 817-819. http://msj.sagepub.com

Key Words: dysarthria • dysphagia • Foix-Chavany-Marie syndrome • glossoplegia • multiple sclerosis • opercular syndrome
