<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Brodmann area 44''' is one of the subdivisions of the frontal lobe in the human brain. It is also known as the [[pars opercularis]] and is part of the [[Broca's area]], which is involved in speech production. <br />
<br />
== Anatomy ==<br />
<br />
Brodmann area 44 is located in the posterior part of the [[frontal lobe]]. It is bounded dorsally by the [[precentral sulcus]], ventrally by the [[lateral sulcus (Sylvian fissure)]], and rostrally by the [[Brodmann area 45]]. <br />

<br />
== Function ==<br />
<br />
Brodmann area 44 is involved in various cognitive functions, including language comprehension, speech production, and working memory. It is also implicated in the processing of complex actions and the control of behavior.<br />
<br />
== Clinical significance ==<br />
<br />
Damage to Brodmann area 44 can result in [[Broca's aphasia]], a condition characterized by difficulties in speech production but relatively preserved comprehension. <br />
