Brain: Brodmann area 29


Medial surface of the brain with Brodmann's areas numbered.
Latin	Area retrosplenialis granularis
NeuroLex ID	birnlex_1763

Brodmann area 29, also known as granular retrolimbic area 29, is a cytoarchitecturally defined portion of the retrosplenial region of the cerebral cortex. In the human it is a narrow band located in the isthmus of cingulate gyrus. Cytoarchitecturally it is bounded internally by the ectosplenial area 26 and externally by the agranular retrolimbic area 30 (Brodmann-1909).
