15. Brainstem vascular syndromes commonly result in a lesion of at least one long tract, and at least one cranial nerve, which helps localize the site of the lesion. Compare and contrast the tract(s) and CN’s that will be affected in lateral versus medial medullary syndrome and how they would present clinically. These question sets are intended to be completed before viewing the High Yield course lectures. Video explanations can be found on the Warm-up Questions page within the online High Yield course. For further review of the topics covered in this set, refer to the following lectures: Neuroscience: • Development of the Nervous System and Associated Pathologies • Cytology of the Nervous System and Associated Pathologies • Autonomic Nervous System Organization • The Ventricular System and Associated Pathologies • The Spinal Cord
