(Dejerine.) (See Chart, No. 6, p. 390.) pressure algometer may be raised on the analgesic side. In the sameway the affected area of the body may be insensitive to all degrees ofheat, and to all stimuli capable of evoking normally a sensation of. PONTINE SYNDROMES 387 cold. Here, however, in the bulb, in distinction to lesions of the cord,the grosser form of pain and discomfort may traverse other paths ifthe usual ones are closed, whereas in the cord all painful impulses areblocked by a unifocal lesion. In the bulb, moreover, all three forms of sensibility may be affectedtogether or any one may escape or be alone involved. These impulses of pain, heat, and cold all run up in the neighborhoodof the fifth nerve nucleus, and in cases of occlusion of the posteriorinferior cerebellar artery the paths are usually implicated. This sameaccident may occasion a dissociation of the impulses underlying theappreciation of posture and passive movement from those concernedwith spatial discrimination. A summary of the findings which may occur in the lesions whichcut off the sensory pathways between the nuclei of the posteriorcolumns and the optic thalamus has been stat
