lateral sulcus

lat·er·al sul·cus

deepest and most prominent of the cortical sulci, extending from the anterior perforated substance first laterally at the deep incisure between the frontal and temporal lobes, then caudal and slightly posterior over the lateral aspect of the cerebral hemisphere; the superior temporal gyrus forms its lower bank, the insula its greatly expanded floor, and the frontal and parietal opercula its upper bank. The sulcus is composed of three portions, a large posterior ramus [TA] (ramus posterior [TA]) that is commonly called the lateral sulcus, a short anterior ramus [TA] (ramus posterior [TA]) located between the pars orbitalis and pars triangularis of the inferior frontal gyrus, and a short ascending ramus [TA] (ramus ascendens [TA]) located between the pars triangularis and pars opercularis. Synonym(s): sulcus lateralis [TA], fissura cerebri lateralis, lateral cerebral fissure, sylvian fissure, fissure of Sylvius

sulcus

S22-914380 (sul'kus) plural.sulci [L., groove] A furrow, groove, or fissure, esp. on the surface of the brain.

atrioventricular sulcus

Atrioventricular groove.

calcarine sulcus

Calcarine fissure.

callosal sulcus

On the medial side of each cerebral hemisphere, the groove that runs parallel to the top of the corpus callosum, separating the corpus callosum from the overlying cingulate gyrus.

central sulcus

The groove that runs down the side of the cerebral hemisphere and separates the parietal and frontal lobes. The central sulcus lies approx. midway along the lateral surface of the cerebral hemisphere, between the frontal and occipital poles of the brain. The gyrus anterior to the central sulcus -- the precentral gyrus -- is the primary motor cortex, and the gyrus posterior to the central sulcus -- the postcentral gyrus -- is the primary sensory cortex. Occasionally, the central sulcus is interrupted and is not a continuous groove from top to bottom. Synonym: sulcus centralis

sulcus centralis

Central sulcus.

cingulate sulcus

A groove curving transversely along the anterior medial surface of the cerebral hemisphere, which parallels the callosal sulcus, from which it is separated by the cingulate gyrus. The cingulate sulcus forms the lower edge of the medial frontal gyrus and the paracentral lobule.

circular sulcus

The groove that almost entirely encircles the insula, a section of cerebral cortex that lies hidden in the floor of the Sylvian fissure.

collateral sulcus

A groove running longitudinally on the inferior (under) surfaces of the occipital and temporal lobes of the brain. In the occipital lobe, the collateral sulcus forms the lower edge of the lingual gyrus; in the temporal lobe, it forms the lower edge of the posterior two-thirds of the parahippocampal gyrus.

coronary sulcus

Atrioventricular groove.

sulcus cutis

The ridges on the skin of the palmar surface of the fingers and toes, which form the fingerprints.

frontal sulcus

The inferior or the superior frontal sulcus.

gingival sulcus

The crevice between the free gingiva and the tooth surface. A healthy sulcus produces gingival sulcular fluid (GSF), which helps to remove bacteria from the sulcus. Normal sulcus depth is 0.5–1.5 mm. Inflammation in the sulcus is the first sign of gingivitis. When enlarged by disease, the gingival sulcus deepens and becomes a periodontal pocket.

hippocampal sulcus

Hippocampal fissure.

hypothalamic sulcus

inferior frontal sulcus

A groove running from front to back along the lateral surface of the frontal lobe of the brain, separating the middle frontal gyrus from the inferior frontal gyrus.

inferior temporal sulcus

A groove that runs from front to back along the lower lateral surface of the temporal lobe of the brain. It runs under and parallel to the superior temporal sulcus, from which it is separated by the middle temporal gyrus. The inferior temporal sulcus is usually interrupted and not a continuous groove.

intertubercular sulcus

Intertubercular groove.

interventricular sulcus

Interventricular groove.

intraparietal sulcus

A groove branching from the postcentral sulcus and running transversely and posteriorly along the lateral surface of the parietal lobe of the brain. It divides the posterior portion of the parietal lobe into two parts, the superior and the inferior parietal lobules.

The crista terminalis is found at the corresponding location inside the right atrium. 2. A V-shaped groove on the dorsal surface of the tongue separating the anterior two-thirds of the tongue from the posterior one-third. The anterior (oral) part of the tongue receives different innervation and has different embryological origins from the posterior (pharyngeal) part.

transverse occipital sulcus

A groove running transversely along the lateral surface of the occipital lobe of the brain. The intraparietal sulcus deadends into the midpoint of the transverse occipital sulcus.
