trigeminal sensory nucleus Fine touch, dental pressure Trigeminal lemniscus VPM pons Spinal trigeminal nucleus Crude touch, pain, temperature Trigeminothalamic tract VPM Medulla and spinal cord Spinal Cord Syndromes Syndrome Motor Symptoms Sensory Symptoms Transverse Cord Lesion Bilateral LMN symptoms at level of injury Bilateral UMN symptoms for all segments below the level of the injury PCML (loss of proprioception, vibration, light touch info) at the level of injury and below the level of injury bilaterally Anterolateral pathway (loss of pain, temp, crude touch) at the level of injury and below the level of injury bilaterally Central Cord Syndrome (Small Lesion) - Loss of pain and temperature sensation bilaterally for spinal cord segment one level below the injury where it occurs Posterior Cord Syndrome -- lose sense of vibration, proprioception, light touch at the level of injury lose sensation at the level of injury and all segments below the level of the injury bilaterally Anterior Cord Syndrome LMN symptoms for all muscles innervated by the level of the spinal cord where the injury occurs loss of pain and temp sensation for dermatomes innervated by spinal cord segment below the level of the injury potentially preservation of pain and temp This study source was downloaded by 100000814400909 from CourseHero.com on 04-10-2024 01:07:44 GMT -05:00

weakness (UMN injury) -sometimes right face and arm sensory loss Left MCA inferior division Anterolateral temporal lobe and posterior parietal lobe -right visual field deficit -sometimes right face and arm sensory loss -motor findings generally normal unless carefully examined -sometimes right sided weakness, especially at onset of symptoms Left MCA Deep Division Deep structures (eg. basal ganglia - body of caudate and most of lentiform nucleus) -right pure motor hemiparesis -larger infarcts with cortical deficits -basal ganglia dysfunction Right MCA Superior Division Lateral frontal

Anterolateral temporal lobe and posterior parietal lobe -left hemineglect -potentially left motor neglect -often left visual field and somatosensory deficits (but difficult to test bc of neglect)
