To describe the current basic functional neuroanatomy of the frontal lobes and complex cognitive processes associated with this wide brain zone.
We reviewed recent studies with neurofunctional interest. We structured the frontal zones and the cognitive functions more specifically humans, named 'executive functions'. We classified the frontal syndrome into more specific syndromes; and, we reviewed the fronto-cortical and subcortical connections, which are the basis of the frontal zones and functions.
The frontal lobe is not a single anatomical and functional brain region. Regions and fronto-cortical and subcortical circuits within the frontal lobe are associated with motor functions and cognitive processes highly specialized, which may be differently affected.
描述额叶当前的基本功能神经解剖结构以及与这个广泛脑区相关的复杂认知过程。
我们回顾了近期具有神经功能研究兴趣的研究。我们更具体地构建了额叶区域和认知功能，特别是在人类中被称为“执行功能”的部分。我们将额叶综合征分类为更具体的综合征；并且，我们回顾了作为额叶区域和功能基础的额皮质和皮质下连接。
额叶并非单一的解剖学和功能性脑区。额叶内的区域以及额皮质和皮质下回路与高度专业化的运动功能和认知过程相关，这些功能可能会受到不同程度的影响。
