The '''cingulate sulcus''' is a [[sulcus (neuroanatomy)|sulcus]] (brain fold) on the [[cingulate cortex]] in the medial wall of the [[cerebral cortex]]. The [[frontal lobe|frontal]] and [[parietal lobe]]s are separated from the [[cingulate gyrus]] by the cingulate sulcus. It terminates as the marginal sulcus of the cingulate sulcus. It sends a ramus to separate the paracentral lobule from the frontal gyri, the [[paracentral sulcus]].
