parahippocampal gyrus
Anatomical term for a cortical region surrounding the hippocampus, involved in memory and spatial processing.
The parahippocampal gyrus is involved in memory formation.
海馬 (hippocampus) is the seahorse-shaped structure deep in the temporal lobe; 海馬傍回 is the cortical area adjacent to it.
Compound of 海馬 (hippocampus) + 傍 (near) + 回 (gyrus), literally 'gyrus near the hippocampus'. A modern anatomical coinage.
