| postcentral area | The cortex of the postcentral gyrus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| postdam area | The soft tissues along the junction of the hard and soft palates on which pressure within the physiologic limits of the tissues can be applied by a denture to aid in the retention of the denture. Synonym: post dam area, postpalatal seal area. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior hypothalamic area | Caudal portions of the hypothalamus located internally in the area of the mamillary body, includes medial, intermediate, and lateral mamillary nuclei and the posterior hypothalamic nuclei. Synonym: posterior hypothalamic area. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior intercondylar area of tibia | The deep notch between the tibial condyles posteriorly to which attaches the posterior cruciate ligament. Synonym: area intercondylaris posterior tibiae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior palatal seal area | The soft tissues along the junction of the hard and soft palates on which pressure within the physiologic limits of the tissues can be applied by a denture to aid in the retention of the denture. Synonym: post dam area, postpalatal seal area. (05 Mar 2000) |

| precentral area | The cortex of the precentral gyrus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| precommissural septal area | A slender vertical whitish band immediately anterior to the lamina terminalis and anterior commissure; contrary to its name, it is not a cortical convolution but is the ventral continuation of the transparent septum. Synonym: area subcallosa, gyrus paraterminalis, gyrus subcallosus, pedunculus corporis callosi, corpus paraterminale, paraterminal body, paraterminal gyrus, peduncle of corpus callosum, precommissural septal area, subcallosal area, Zuckerkandl's convolution.

| prefrontal area | Cortex of the frontal lobe of the cerebral hemisphere, originally, the entire cortical expanse anterior to the central sulcus, including the agranular motor and premotor cortex (Brodmann's areas 4 and 6), the dysgranular cortex (area 8), and the granular frontal (prefrontal) cortex anterior to the latter, now more often refers to the granular frontal (prefrontal) cortex. Synonym: frontal area. (05 Mar 2000) |
| premotor area | A somewhat ill-defined term usually referring to the agranular cortex of Brodmann's area 6. Synonym: premotor area. (05 Mar 2000) |
