Scope note: Región de la corteza cerebral situada en la zona medial de la GIRO PARAHIPOCAMPAL, inmediatamente caudal respecto del CORTEZA OLFATORIA del uncus. La corteza entorrinal es el origen del principal sistema de fibras nerviosas aferentes a la formación del HIPOCAMPO, también denominadas FIBRAS PERFORANTES.
