The frontal operculum is a part of the brain located in the frontal lobe, specifically at the lateral surface. It is situated above the lateral sulcus and covers the insula, which is involved in various functions, including emotion and perception. The frontal operculum plays a role in processing sensory information and is linked to language and motor control. This region is associated with several important functions, including speech production and the integration of sensory experiences. Damage to the frontal operculum can lead to difficulties in communication and changes in emotional responses, highlighting its significance in cognitive and emotional processes.
