The term superior rostral gyrus refers to a convolution on the medial surface of the frontal lobe in the human ( Mai-1997 ). It together with the inferior rostral gyrus constitute the paraterminal gyrus. Defined topologically by dissection, it is bounded ventrally by an unnamed groove that separates it from the inferior rostral gyrus. It is bounded superiorly by the cingulate sulcus, which separates it from the anterior cingulate gyrus. It is not found in the macaque where the comparable area ventral to the rostrum of the corpus callosum is not distinguished from the anterior cingulate gyrus ( Martin-2000 ). Neither is it found in the smooth cerebral cortex of the rat or mouse ( NeuroNames ). Updated 11 Sep 2024.
