Todd in 1847 and Schiff in 1858 knew the functions of the posterior columns and 10 years later Brown-Sequard knew as well. Reynolds, Romberg, and Duchenne, each described a posterior column syndrome based on a disease in which the primary lesion was not in the posterior columns. In the last 150 years almost every white matter structure of the cord has been credited with serving the sensations that we now know are a function of the posterior columns. Vibration, joint position and movement as well as discriminatory touch each seem to be served by separate fibres of the posterior columns and medial lemniscus. There is evidence of this in cat and man. These sensations may be lost individually, totally, or in certain stereotyped combinations. Vibration or joint sense is commonly lost alone. When a discriminatory touch sensation is lost with one other sense, it is almost inevitably joint position sense. Absent discriminatory touch and vibration sense with normal joint position sense appears to be unknown. This functional separation continues into the thalamus. At the highest level there is no evidence that vibration sense has any conscious somatosensory cortical affiliation, while joint position and discriminatory touch senses definitely do.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0317167100031875","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,7,28]],"date-time":"2016-07-28T11:41:54Z","timestamp":1469706114000},"page":"312-320","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Dissociated Loss of Vibration, Joint Position and Discriminatory Tactile Senses in Disease of Spinal Cord and Brain"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"R.T.","family":"Ross","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,9,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0317167100031875_ref039","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/brain\/34.2-3.102"},{"key":"S0317167100031875_ref018","first-page":"235","article-title":"Lehrbuch der Physiology der Menschen","volume":"1","author":"Schiff","year":"1858","journal-title":"Lahr, Verlag, Von M.
