  2. Frontal lobe injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontal_lobe_injury

    Following a frontal lobe injury, an individual's abilities to make good choices and recognize consequences are often impaired. Memory impairment is another common effect associated with frontal lobe injuries, but this effect is less documented and may or may not be the result of flawed testing. [ 3 ]

  3. Uncinate fasciculus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncinate_fasciculus

    The uncinate fasciculus is a hook-shaped bundle of axons that links anterior portions of the temporal lobe with the inferior frontal gyrus and the lower surfaces of the frontal lobe. It arises in the anterior temporal lobe and amygdala , in the temporal lobe curving in an upward pathway behind the external capsule inward of the insular cortex ...

  4. Inferior frontal gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inferior_frontal_gyrus

    Orbital part of inferior frontal gyrus (pars orbitalis) (cortex inferior and anterior to the horizontal ramus of the lateral sulcus) Cytoarchitecturally the opercular part of the inferior frontal gyrus is known as Brodmann area 44 (BA44). The triangular part of the inferior frontal gyrus is known as Brodmann area 45 (BA45), and the orbital part ...

  5. Foix–Chavany–Marie syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foix–Chavany–Marie...

    FCMS is primarily originates from damages in the posterior region of the inferior frontal gyrus and inferior region of the precentral gyrus. [6] Anatomically, the word operculum is defined as the cortices encompassing the insula , which includes the pre and post-central, inferior-frontal, supramarginal, angular inferior parietal, and superior ...

  6. Traumatic brain injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traumatic_brain_injury

    Research shows that the most common areas to have focal lesions in non-penetrating traumatic brain injury are the orbitofrontal cortex (the lower surface of the frontal lobes) and the anterior temporal lobes, areas that are involved in social behavior, emotion regulation, olfaction, and decision-making, hence the common social/emotional and ...

  7. Frontal lobe disorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontal_lobe_disorder

    Frontal lobe disorder, also frontal lobe syndrome, is an impairment of the frontal lobe of the brain due to disease or frontal lobe injury. [5] The frontal lobe plays a key role in executive functions such as motivation, planning, social behaviour, and speech production. Frontal lobe syndrome can be caused by a range of conditions including ...

  8. Emotional lateralization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emotional_lateralization

    Damage to the inferior parietal region including the anterior (supramarginal gyrus) and posterior (angular gyrus) regions resulted in reduced SCR. Damage to the right hemisphere in these regions resulted in a significant (p < 0.001) decrease in SCR while the damage to the left hemisphere of these regions did not (p > 0.05). [n 12]

  9. Broca's area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broca's_area

    Broca's area, or the Broca area (/ ˈ b r oʊ k ə /, [1] [2] [3] also UK: / ˈ b r ɒ k ə /, US: / ˈ b r oʊ k ɑː / [4]), is a region in the frontal lobe of the dominant hemisphere, usually the left, of the brain [5] with functions linked to speech production.
