Final answer:

Contralateral motor or sensory deficits more pronounced in the lower limb than the upper limb, occasionally with urinary incontinence, are characteristic of Anterior spinal artery syndrome.

Step-by-step explanation:

Contralateral motor or sensory deficits more pronounced in the lower limb than the upper limb, occasionally with urinary incontinence, are characteristic of a) Anterior spinal artery syndrome. This syndrome occurs when the anterior spinal artery, which supplies blood to the anterior part of the spinal cord, is blocked or damaged. The blockage or damage can result in a loss of motor and sensory function in the lower limb.
