Why contralateral hemiplegia occurs in patients experiencing upper motor neuron lesions like stroke?
Contralateral hemiplegia occurs in patients with upper motor neuron lesions, such as those resulting from a stroke, due to the decussation (crossing) of motor pathways in the central nervous system. Specifically, the majority of fibers in the corticospinal tract cross over at the medulla oblongata, meaning that damage to the motor cortex in one hemisphere affects the motor control of the opposite side of the body. This disruption leads to weakness or paralysis on the side of the body opposite to the lesion. Thus, a stroke in the left hemisphere typically results in contralateral (right-sided) hemiplegia.
