What happens if the ventral spinothalamic tract is damage?
The ventral spinothalamic tract carries "light touch" sensation. There are three neurons that carry the information to the brain. From the cutaneous nerve(s) in the skin to the dorsal root ganglia, then to the dorsal horn in spinal cord, crossing over to the other side and traveling up to the thalamus, and finally from the thalamus to post-central gyrus. Because the axons of the neuron cross over to the other side of the spinal cord almost immediately, a spinal cord lesion will produce loss of this sensation on the opposite side of the body below where the lesion occurs. According to one of my medical books, however, light touch can ALSO be carried via the medial lemniscus tract, which doesn't cross until it reaches the brain stem. That being true, light touch could be spared even if there is damage to the ventral spinothalamic tract. I hope that helps! Compliments of your friendly MSI :)
