Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo é investigar o perfil neuropsicológico de uma amostra de pacientes brasileiros com esclerose múltipla surto-remissão (EMSR), descrevendo as funções cognitivas mais comprometidas. Métodos: Cinquenta e quatro pacientes com EMSR e 54 controles pareados por sexo, idade e nível educacional foram avaliados por meio de uma longa e abrangente bateria neuropsicológica. Resultados: Observou-se que 59,2% dos pacientes com EMSR apresentaram algum tipo de comprometimento cognitivo em comparação com o grupo controle. Os testes neuropsicológicos identificaram disfunções executivas, da memória de longo prazo e da velocidade de processamento de informação. Conclusão: Os resultados encontram-se em conformidade com estudos anteriores relatados na literatura internacional. Contudo, mais estudos ainda são necessários para uma estimativa maior do perfil das alterações cognitivas da esclerose múltipla no Brasil. Objective: The goal of this study is to investigate neuropsychological profile of a sample of Brazilian patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) and to describe the cognitive functions more frequently affected. Methods: Fifty-four patients with RRMS and 54 controls matched by sex, age and education were assessed through a long and comprehensive neuropsychological battery. Results: We found that 59.2% of patients with RRMS had some sort of cognitive impairment as compared to the control group. Neuropsychological testing identified executive functions, long-term memory and speed of information processing as the cognitive functions most frequently impaired among patients. Conclusion: The results are in line with previous studies reported. However, as there are few studies of cognitive impairment in patients with multiple sclerosis in Brazilian literature, more studies are still necessary for a larger evaluation of the cognitive profile of multiple sclerosis in Brazil
