cingulate gigantopyramidal field
The term cingulate gigantopyramidal field refers to a cytoarchitecturally defined area of the human cerebral cortex that is distinguished by large pyramidal cells that are cytoarchitecturally distinct from those of the area 4 of Brodmann (human). It is located in the depth of the cingulate sulcus where it occupies portions of the superior frontal gyrus and the cingulate gyrus. It may correspond to the human premotor cortex ( Braak-1976, Zilles-1990 ).
Also known as: cingulate gigantopyramidal field, cingulate core
