forebrain commissures

The term forebrain commissures refers to a set of three or four fiber pathways that cross the midline of the cerebrum. They include the anterior commissure, the corpus callosum and the hippocampal commissure ( Crosby-1962 ). Some authors distinguish the basal telencephalic commissure from the anterior commissure ( Lamantia-1990 ).

Also known as: commissures of the telencephalon, decussations of telencephalon, telencephalic commissures, forebrain commissures, cerebral commissures, cerebral commissural fibers, Neurofibrae commissurales
