Thoracic and Lumbar Spine AnatomyOrthopedic Assessment III Head, Spine, and Trunk with LabPET 5609C
Clinical AnatomyVertebral Column: Cervical Spine:Lordotic curvatureGreatest ROMMost vulnerable to injuryThoracic Spine:Greatest protectionLeast ROMLumbar Spine:Balance between protection/ROM
Clinical AnatomyVertebral Column:Extends from skull to the pelvis33 total vertebrae:Superiorly: 24 individual vertebrae (separated by intervertebral discs)Inferiorly: 9 fuse to form 2 composite bonesSacrum (5)Coccyx (4)
Clinical AnatomyVertebral Column:Functions:Transmits weight of the trunk to the lower limbsSurrounds/protects spinal cordAttachment point for the ribs and muscles of neck and back
Clinical AnatomyVertebral Column: Major Supporting LigamentsAnterior Longitudinal Ligament runs vertically along anterior surface of vertebral bodiesNeck - SacrumAttaches strongly to both vertebrae and intervertebral discs (very wide)Prevents back hyperextension
Clinical AnatomyVertebral Column: Major Supporting LigamentsPosterior Longitudinal Ligament - runs vertically along posterior surfaces of vertebral bodiesNarrower, weakerAttaches to intervertebral discsPrevents hyperflexion
Clinical AnatomyVertebral Column: Major Supporting LigamentsLigamentum Flavum - strong ligament that connects the laminae of the vertebraeProtects the neural elements and the spinal cordStabilizes the spine to prevent excessive vertebral body motionStrongest of the spinal ligaments Forms the posterior wall of the spinal canal with the laminaeStretches with forward bending / recoils in erect position
Clinical AnatomyVertebral Column: Supporting LigamentsIntertransverse Ligament - located between the transverse processesCervical region: consist of a few irregular, scattered fibersThoracic region: rounded cords connected with deep muscles of the backLumbar region: thin and membranous
Clinical AnatomyVertebral Column: Supporting LigamentsInterspinal Ligament - connect spinous processes (spans the entire process)Meets the ligamentum flavum in front and the supraspinal ligament behind
Clinical AnatomyVertebral Column: Supporting LigamentsSupraspinal Ligament -connects together the apexes of the spinous processesExtends from 7th cervical vertebra to sacrumStrong fibrous cordAt points of attachment (tips of the spinous processes) fibrocartilage is developed in the ligamentSupraspinal Ligament

Clinical AnatomyFacet Joints:Articulations between superior articular facet (bottom vertebrae) and inferior articular facet (above vertebrae)Contribute to ROM Weight-bearing stress through vertebral body and discSynovial joints
Clinical AnatomyPars Interarticularis:Area between the superior and inferior facetsCommon site for stress fractures (lumbar spine)Spondylolysis - refers to the defect (black arrows) present when the pars interarticularis (green arrow) is fractured
Clinical AnatomyIntervertebral Foramen:Space where spinal nerve roots exit the vertebral columnSize variable due to placement, pathology, spinal loading, and postureCan be occluded by arthritic degenerative changes and space-occupying lesions (tumors, spinal disc herniations)
Vertebral Anatomy
LevelVertebral BodyTransverse ProcessSpinous ProcessCervicalSmall; Vertebral body absent in C1; remaining bodies progressively in sizeShort; Processes contain the transverse foramen for passage of vertebral arterySmall and short, except for C7 (characteristics of thoracic vertebrae)ThoracicDiameter and thickness as spine continues inferiorlyAttachment of muscles and costovertebral ligaments; Processes of T1-T12 have articular surfaces for the ribsLong and slender; downward projections overlap of spinous processes of inferior vertebrae; gradually thicken in size as you move LumbarVery broadLong for leverageSuperior borders are posteriorly projected with a large inferior flare
Clinical AnatomyThoracic Segment:Wider/thicker help support torso weightSpinous Processes:Downward projectionLimit extensionAttachment for thoracic muscles/ligamentsTransverse Processes:Costotransverse Joints: Articulation with ribsRibs 1 10 Ribs 11 and 12No articulation with transverse processes

Clinical AnatomyThoracic Segment:Costovertebral Joint:Articulation between vertebral bodies and ribsSuperior and Inferior Costal Facets
Superior Costal FacetInferior Costal Facet
Clinical AnatomySacrum:Curved, triangular shaped5 fused vertebraeFixes the spinal column to the pelvisStabilizes the pelvic girdle
Clinical AnatomySacroiliac Joint (SI):Between the sacrum (base of the spine) and the ilium of the pelvisStrong, weight bearing synovial joints (2)Covered by 2 different kinds of cartilageSacral surface (hyaline cartilage)Iliac surface (fibrocartilage) Functions: Shock absorption (spine)Allows the transverse rotations (lower extremity) to be transmitted up the spine. Motions:Anterior innominate tilt Posterior innominate tilt Sacral flexion (or nutation) Sacral extension (or counter-nutation)
Clinical Anatomy
Clinical AnatomySI Ligaments:Anterior Sacroiliac Ligament:Connects the anterior surface of the lateral part of the sacrum to the ilium Note: Black Arrow
Clinical AnatomySI Ligaments:Posterior Sacroiliac Ligament: Forms the chief bond of union between the bonesUpper part: (short PSL)Nearly horizontal in directionIlium to upper sacrumLower part: (long PSL)Oblique in directionLower sacrum to PSIS
Short PSLLong PSL
Clinical AnatomySI Ligaments:Sacrotuberous Ligament:Arises from ischial tuberosity to blend in with inferior fibers of posterior SI ligamentsIschial TuberositySacrotuberous Ligament
Clinical AnatomySI Ligaments:Sacrospinous Ligament:Originates from the ischial spine and attaches to the coccyxSacrospinous Ligament
Clinical AnatomyCoccyx: TailboneConsists of 4 (in some cases 3 or 5) vertebrae fused togetherAttachment site for muscles of pelvic floor and sometimes portions of gluteus maximus
Clinical AnatomyIntervertebral Discs:23 intervertebral discsNo disc between skull and C1 or between C1-C2Discs are thickest in the lumbar vertebrae and cervical regions (enhances flexibility)Functions:Shock absorberswalking, jumping, running Allow spine to bendAt points of compression, the discs flatten out and bulge out a bit between the vertebrae
Clinical AnatomyNucleus Pulposus: CoreGelatinous, acts like a rubber ball (enables spine to absorb compressive forces) 60-70% water Annulus Fibrosus: Outer ringsMultilayered fibers (cross from opposite directions)Rings absorb compressive forces themselves
Clinical AnatomyIntervertebral Discs: Dehydration ProcessCollectively, the discs make up about 25% of the height of the vertebral columnNucleus pulposus becomes dehydrated during course of dayFlattens out (height is 1-2 centimeters less at night than when we awake in morning)Aging Process = Permanent dehydration (ages 40 60)Decreased ROMNarrowing intervertebral foramen
