Description
The longitudinal fissure is one of the two largest fissures of the brain; the other being the horizontal.

This fissure also lodges the falx cerebri and its contained sinuses, the superior and inferior longitudinal. The longitudinal fissure separates the two hemispheres of the cerebrum from each other.
