retrosubicular area 48


The term retrosubicular area 48, or Area retrosubicularis, refers to a subdivision of the cytoarchitecturally defined hippocampal region of the cerebral cortex. In the human it is located on the medial surface of the temporal lobe. Cytoarchitectually it is bounded rostrally by the perirhinal area 35 and medially by the presubiculum. While described by Brodmann (Brodman-09), it was not included in his areal maps of human cortex (Brodmann-09; Brodmann-10)
