The following note describes aspiration of a cyst at the lumbar level of the spinal column. Preoperative diagnosis: Right-sided L3-4 synovial facet cysts Postoperative diagnosis: Same. Procedure: Right-sided L3-4 synovial facet cyst aspiration. Solution:=62268 This patient presents with a synovial cyst of the facet joint. May 02, 2016 Today, we take a closer look at the causes, symptoms and treatment options of synovial cysts. Causes and Symptoms of Spinal Synovial Cysts. As we mentioned above, synovial cysts form as the result of spinal degeneration, but they typically only form in the lumbar portion of the spine.

Typically, the lumbar spine curves inward. In someone with a mild reversal, the lumbar spine bends slightly outward before coming back inward to become the thoracic spine. Lumbar refers to the lower back. Read More
The lumbar spine supports the weight of the entire column and, therefore, withstands a great load Read More
the thoracic spine is above the lumbar spine which means ALL thoracic vertebrae are superior to the lumbar vertebrae. Read More
No. The cervical spine is in the neck and is above the lumbar spine, which is in the low back. Because we reference things from anatomical position, which is standing upright, and because the term 'inferior' is used to denote things that are below, that statement would be incorrect. Therefore, we could correctly say the cervical spine is superior, or rostral, to the lumbar spine. We could also say that the lumbar spine is inferior… Read More
Scoliosis is thickening or hardening of the bone. The lower lumbar spine is the lower back (Disks L1 - L5). Scoliosis in the lower lumbar spine means you have thickening or hardening of the bone in the lower back (lumbar disks L1-L5). Read More
Lumbar rotary levoscoliosis is a deformity of the spine. This causes a curvature of the spine that may also cause the ribs and lumbar area to be rotated slightly. Read More
An increase in the outward curvature of the lumbar spine is often referred to as flattening of the lumbar lordosis. Read More

Doctors are trained to perform lumbar punctures on adult. Their lumbar spine, which is where the needle is inserted, is naturally in a different position due to the height of an adult. Since children are smaller, and have a shorter spine, their lumbar spine is in a different position. It's not that much more difficult to do it on a child, the doctor just has to break from his natural thought process and locate the… Read More
The top portion of the spine in the neck is called the cervical spine and has 7 vertebrae. The lower portion of the spine is the lumbar spine where there are 5 vertebrae, rarely some people have 6 vertebrae, but this is usually due to an incomplete fusion of the upper sacral vertebrae (i.e. lumbarization) .

The part of the spine at the neck is known as the cervical spine. The upper back contains the thoracic spine, and the lower back is the lumbar spine. Read More
The normal anatomy of the spine is usually described by dividing up the spine into 3 major sections: the cervical, the thoracic, and the lumbar spine. (Below the lumbar spine is a bone called the sacrum, which is part of the pelvis). Each section is made up of individual bones called vertebrae. There are 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, and 5 lumbar vertebrae. Anatomy of the Spine Read More

The human spine is made up of three parts, the cervical spine(neck), the thoracic(middle), and the lumbar (lower back). The lumbar consists of 5 vertebrae in the average adult human, but may also only have 4 or 6 vertebrae depending on the individual, although this is not as common. Read More
Sacral is pronounced as 'say-cruel'. The sacral spine is below the lumbar spine but is above the coccyx. Spinal cord levels: cervical thoracic lumbar sacral coccyx Read More
'Lumbar' refers to the region of the back or spine made up of the lumbar vertebrae. The 1st lumbar vertebra is just under the 12th thoracic vertebra. The easiest way to find this is to find the first vertebral body not connected to a rib. This is L1 (1st lumbar vertebra). There are 5 lumbar vertebrae (L1 through L5). The 5th lumbar vertebra sits on top of the sacrum (where your spine connects with your… Read More
