31The structural connection between the dorsal premotor (PMd) and the lateral prefrontal cortices 32 (DLPFC) has been revealed, in a few studies, as the frontal longitudinal system (FLS). This study 33 conducted a tractography analysis and a limited, postmortem, white-fiber dissection to investigate the 34 superior FLS tract (SFLT) and analyze both its symmetry and termination point patterns. An analysis 35 of spatial location, termination points, laterality, and correlation with the subjects' gender or 36 handedness was performed. SFLT was constructed in 100% of right and 88% of left hemispheres.
37The tracts exhibited variable patterns in different subjects in their posterior terminations. Additionally, 38 the SFLT was found to possess a complex spatial relationship with the adjacent bundles. The SFLT 39 was revealed successfully in two right hemispheres, where the posterior terminations were found to 40 originate in the PMd, and its posterior terminations being totally separate from the superior 41 longitudinal fasciculus.
