The dentate gyrus which may be considered as a modified part of the hippocampus is partially separated from the gyrus hippocampus by the hippocampal fissure and from the fimbria by the fimbrio-dentate sulcus; it is intimately connected with the hippocampal gyrus and the hippocampus.

Each tube is about 10 cm. long, and is described as consisting of three portions: (1) the isthmus, or medial constricted third; (2) the ampulla, or intermediate dilated portion, which curves over the ovary; and (3) the infundibulum with its abdominal ostium, surrounded by fimbriæ, one of which, the ovarian fimbria is attached to the ovary.

When followed backward the dentate gyrus separates from the fimbria at the splenium, loses its incisions and knobs, and as the fasciola cinerea passes over the splenium onto the dorsal surface of the corpus callosum and spreads out into a thin layer of gray substance known as the indusium, which can be traced forward around the genu of the corpus callosum into the gyrus subcallosus. From Wordnik.com. [IX. Neurology. 4e. Composition and Central Connections of the Spinal Nerves] Reference
About one-fourth of all the fibers of the fimbria are large projection fibers, the other three-fourths consist of fine commissural fibers which pass from the hippocampus of one side through the fimbria and hippocampal commissure (ventral psalterium or lyre), to the fimbria and hippocampus of the opposite side where they penetrate the pyramidal layer and terminate in the stratum radiatum.
