In this herniation, the innermost part of the frontal lobe, called the cingulate gyrus, gets squeezed below the free edge of the falx cerebri to the opposite side of the skull.
Falx is a Latin word originally meaning sickle but was later used to mean any of a number of tools that had a curved blade that was sharp on the inside edge such as a scythe. Falx was also used to mean a weapon – particularly that of the Thracians and Dacians – and, later, a siege hook used by the Romans themselves.
