Occipitotemporal sulcus

Last revised by Craig Hacking on 13 May 2018

The occipitotemporal sulcus, also known as the lateral occipitotemporal sulcus, runs anteroposteriorly on the inferior surface of the temporal lobe, separating the inferior temporal gyrus laterally from the fusiform gyrus medially. It runs parallel and lateral to the collateral sulcus (which is also known as the medial occipitotemporal sulcus).
