posterior transverse temporal gyrus

posterior transverse temporal gyrus (TTGp)

The term posterior transverse temporal gyrus (TTGp) refers to the more caudal of two or three short oblique convolutions in the inferior wall of the lateral fissure (ltf) of the human ( Carpenter-1983 ). Identified by dissection, they are located on the upper surface of the superior temporal gyrus,(STG) rostral and medial to the planum temporale (PTE). The more rostral convolution is the anterior transverse temporal gyrus (TTGa). Transverse temporal gyri are not seen in the macaque ( Mesulam-1985 ) nor in the smooth cerebral cortex (CTX) of the rat or mouse ( NeuroNames ). Updated 2 Sep 2024.

Also known as: Gyrus temporalis transversus posterior, posterior transverse temporal convolution of Heschl, posterior transverse temporal gyrus, posterior Heschl's gyrus
