Definition[Bearbeiten]
The fimbria hippocampi is a fringe-like band of white matter that forms the beginning of the fornix cerebri at the medial edge of the hippocampus.
Anatomy[Bearbeiten]
The hippocampal fimbria is a collection of myelinated axons that originate from the alveus. It lies on the dentate gyrus and serves as an attachment to the choroid plexus. The hippocampal fimbria belongs to the subiculum and thus to the limbic system.
