ALT_DEFINITION |
The second largest of the four cerebral lobes, the temporal lobe is approximately twenty two percent of the total neocortical volume. The temporal lobe can be divided into two main sections: first, the neocortex, comprising its lateral and inferolateral surfaces, and its standard cerebral cortex; and, second, the mesial temporal lobe, which is sometimes referred to as the limbic lobe, and includes the hippocampus, the amygdala, and the parahippocampal gyrus. Grossly, the lobe extends superiorly to the Sylvian fissure, and posteriorly to an imaginary line, the lateral parietotemporal line, which separates the temporal lobe from the inferior parietal lobule superiorly and the occipital lobe inferiorly. The middle cranial fossa forms its anterior and inferior boundaries. |
