Retrosplenial Cingulate Cortex (Areas 29, 30)
Main Text
Location and Boundaries
Location
- • Paramidline posterior to most caudal portion of corpus callosum (isthmus of cingulate gyrus)
- • Ventrolaterally contiguous with parahippocampal cortex (area 36)
- • Area 26 occupies most rostral portion; area 29 occupies mid portion (within callosal sulcus); area 30 occupies more caudal portion of retrosplenial cingulate cortex (onto convexity of cingulate gyrus)
Structural Connections
Reciprocal Connections
- • Orbitofrontal cortex (area 11)
- • Dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (areas 9 and 46)
- • Posterior cingulate cortex (areas 23 and 31)
- • Parahippocampal cortex (areas 28, 34, 35, and 36)
