Anatomical terms of bone. [ edit on Wikidata] The sacrum (pl.: sacra or sacrums[ 1 ]), in human anatomy, is a large, triangular bone at the base of the spine that forms by the fusing of the sacral vertebrae (S1–S5) between ages 18 and 30. [ 2 ] The sacrum situates at the upper, back part of the pelvic cavity, between the two wings of the pelvis.
In human anatomy, the sacral plexus is a nerve plexus which provides motor and sensory nerves for the posterior thigh, most of the lower leg and foot, and part of the pelvis. It is part of the lumbosacral plexus and emerges from the lumbar vertebrae and sacral vertebrae (L4-S4). [1] A sacral plexopathy is a disorder affecting the nerves of the ...
Sacrovertebral angle. Lumbar vertebrae are yellow, and sacrum is green. Anatomical terminology. [ edit on Wikidata] The sacrum is curved upon itself and placed very obliquely, its base projecting forward and forming the prominent sacrovertebral angle when articulated with the last lumbar vertebra . It is also known as the "lumbosacral angle".
A coccyx fracture is a fracture of the coccyx, commonly called a broken tailbone or ‘puzzle fracture.’. The coccyx is located at the base of the spine, under the sacrum. It is the last section of the ape vertebral column. Most commonly in humans it comprises 3 to 5 fused (or, more rarely, separate) vertebrae, and is approximately 4 to 10 cm ...
The posterior divisions of the sacral nerves are small and diminish in size as they move downward; they emerge, except the last, through the posterior sacral foramina. In some rare cases these nerves break and cause the person's legs to become weak and eventually wither away under the person's weight. The upper three are covered at their points ...
6423. Anatomical terminology. [edit on Wikidata] The sacral spinal nerve 1 (S1) is a spinal nerve of the sacral segment. [1] It originates from the spinal column from below the 1st body of the sacrum. Sacrum, showing bodies in center.
A thoracic vertebra. (Superior labeled at top; inferior labeled at bottom.) The articular process or zygapophysis (Greek: ζυγόν, romanized: zugón, lit. ' yoke ' + apophysis) of a vertebra is a projection of the vertebra that serves the purpose of fitting with an adjacent vertebra. The actual region of contact is called the articular facet.
