I think it's 2 as well. Brown-Sequard syndrome results from hemisection of the spinal cord.

Also:
Contralateral loss of pain and temp.
Contralateral loss of touch
leg ataxia , Horners,
ipsilateral UMN and LMN lesion
Compared to Lou Gehrig's ds it DOES have sensory deficits!
And its an ipsilateral spastic paresis

tactile=touch. therefore touch should be ipsilateral in brown-sequard syndrome. please correct me if i am wrong.

fine touch-ipsilateral
crude touch - contralateral (ventral spinothalamic tract)
