Orbital part of inferior frontal gyrus

Nervous system ยท part of Frontal lobe

The orbital part of inferior frontal gyrus also known as the pars orbitalis is the orbital part of the inferior frontal gyrus. In humans, this region is bordered by the triangular part of the inferior frontal gyrus (pars triangularis) and, surrounding the anterior horizontal limb of the lateral sulcus, a portion of the opercular part of inferior frontal gyrus (pars opercularis). Bounded caudally by the anterior ascending limb of the lateral sulcus, it borders on the insula in the depth of the lateral sulcus. It is bordered anteriorly/inferiorly by the lateral orbital sulcus. Cytoarchitectonically it is most closely represented by Brodmann area 47 (BA47). However, BA47 and pars orbitalis are (Wikipedia)
