Supramarginal gyrus

Brain: Supramarginal gyrus

Lateral view of a human brain, main gyri labeled.

Lateral surface of left cerebral hemisphere, viewed from the side. (Supramarginal gyrus is labeled at upper right.)
Gray's	subject #189 823

The supramarginal gyrus is a portion of the parietal lobe. It is probably involved with language perception and processing, and lesions in it may cause Wernicke's aphasia or transcortical sensory aphasia.^[1]
