What is lateral corticospinal tract?
Lateral corticospinal tract is the part of pyramidal tract that consists of crossed pyramidal fibres. So, it's also called as "crossed pyramidal tract".as for anterior corticospinal tract, it consists of uncrossed pyramidal fibres.
Where does crossing over occur?
* Most of the cortico-spinal fibers (about 90%) cross over to the contralateral side in the http://www.answers.com/topic/medulla-oblongata (http://www.answers.com/topic/decussation-of-the-pyramids). Those that cross in the medulla oblongata travel in the http://www.answers.com/topic/lateral-corticospinal-tract. * The remainder of them (10%) cross over at the level that they exit the http://www.answers.com/topic/spinal-cord, and these travel in the http://www.answers.com/topic/anterior-corticospinal-tract. Most of the cortico-spinal fibers (about 90%) cross over to the contralateral side in the medulla oblongata (pyramidal decussation). Those that cross in the medulla oblongata travel in the lateral corticospinal tract. The remainder of them (10%) cross over at the level that they exit the spinal cord, and these travel in the anterior corticospinal tract.
