While there is a profusion of functional investigations involving the superior temporal sulcus (STS), our knowledge of the anatomy of this sulcus is still limited by a large variability across individuals. Several “plis de passage” (PPs), annectant gyri buried inside the fold, can separate the STS into distinct…

Influential models of primate visual cortex describe two functionally distinct pathways: a ventral pathway for object recognition and the dorsal pathway for spatial and action processing. However, recent human and non-human primate research suggests the existence of a third visual pathway projecting from early visual…

'Denis Rivière' 'Jean‐François Mangin'] Like fingerprints, cortical folding patterns are unique to each brain even though they follow a general species-specific organization. Some folding patterns have been linked with neurodevelopmental disorders. However, due to the high inter-individual variability, the…

We have learned much about the brain regions that support reading by measuring neuronal responses to single words, but we know little about how the brain processes multiple words simultaneously. This fMRI study fills that gap by varying the number of English words presented while holding the amount of visual…

The temporal binding window (TBW) refers to the time interval within which two stimuli, typically visual and auditory, are perceived as synchronous. Neural bases underlying this process consistently implicate a large-scale network with superior temporal sulcus (STS) as a central hub, alongside contributions from…

'Erik H. Middlebrooks' 'Orhun Mete Çevik' 'M. İmre Usseli' 'Mustafa Güdük' 'M. Emin Aksoy' 'M. Necmettin Pamir' 'Baran Bozkurt'] Aim of this study was to define sulcal and gyral variations of the lateral parietal cortex and underlying white matter tracts and emphasize the importance of relationship between topographic…

The integration of visual and vestibular inputs during egomotion is fundamental for both postural and navigational control. In the present study, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in four macaque monkeys to investigate cortical activation in response to galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS), applied…

The gyri and sulci of the human brain were defined by pioneers such as Louis-Pierre Gratiolet and Alexander Ecker, and extensified by, among others, Dejerine ([23]) and von Economo and Koskinas ([106]). Extensive discussions of the cerebral sulci and their variations were presented by Ono et al. ([68]), Duvernoy…

Purpose Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy is a common form of focal drug resistant epilepsy in adults. Various mesial temporal lobe structures are integral in the genesis of temporal seizures and the hippocampal sclerosis is the primary neuropathological finding in these cases. Surgical treatment is considered the…

Objective The mesiotemporal lobe and lateral midbrain reside in a deep and complex anatomical region. The classic intradural subtemporal approach provides good access to this region but has significant risk of iatrogenic injury to the temporal lobe and vein of Labbé. We developed a new approach to this region to…

The venous system has numerous variations and asymmetries. However, there are some generalities. The superficial venous system drains the superficial cortical area of the lateral sulcus, while the deep venous system drains the insula. Between these two systems, several anastomoses are found. The superficial venous…

In this paper, we will provide an introduction to the brain structure and function. Brain is an astonishing living organ inside our heads, weighing about 1.5kg, consisting of billions of tiny cells. The brain enables us to sense the world around us (to touch, to smell, to see and to hear, etc.), to think and to respond…

Introduction: In this microneurosurgical and anatomical study, we characterized the superficial anastomosing veins of the human brain cortex in human specimens. Material and Methods: We used 21 brain preparations fixed in formalin (5%) that showed no pathological changes and came from the autopsy sections. The…

The claustrum (Cl) is a thin grey matter structure located in the center of each brain hemisphere. Cl has been hypothesized as a central hub of the brain for multisensory/sensorimotor integration, consciousness, and attention. Accumulating evidence has suggested that Cl might be important in the development of severe…

The boundaries of the visual areas located anterior to V2 in the dorsomedial region of the macaque cortex remain contentious. This region is usually conceptualized as including two functional subdivisions: the dorsal component of area V3 (V3d), laterally, and another area, named the parietooccipital area (PO) or V6…
