  3. VERTEBRAL COLUMN fromthecranium (skull) totheapex of thecoccyx ¼ formed by the intervertebral (IV) discs. IV discsseparateandbindthevertebraetogether.

  4. VERTEBRAL COLUMN • Protectsthespinalcordandspinalnerves. • Supportstheweight of the body superiortothelevel of thepelvis. • Providesa partlyrigidandflexibleaxisforthe body and an extendedbase on whichthehead is placedandpivots. • Plays an important rolein postureandlocomotion • (themovementfromoneplacetoanother).

  5. VERTEBRAE • vertebrae(singular = vertebra) • separatedbyresilientintervertebral (IV) discs. • Vertebralcolumnflexible

  6. VERTEBRAE 33 vertebraearranged in 5 regions • 7 cervical • 12 thoracic • 5 lumbar • 5 sacral • 4 coccygeal

  7. VERTEBRAE • Significantmotionoccursbetween24 superiorvertebrae. • Of the 9 inferiorvertebrae, 5 sacralvertebraefusedin adultsto form thesacrum • After~ 30, the4 coccygealvertebraefuseto form thecoccyx

  9. Structures of thevertebrae • A typicalvertebraconsistsof • A Vertebralbody • AVertebralarch • 7 processes 3-4 2 1 5-6 7

  10. VERTEBRAL BODY • Massive, cylndircal • Anteriorpart of the bone • Givesstrength to the vertebralcolumn. • Supportsbody weight. • The size of the vertebral bodiescolumn descends • most markedly from T4 inferiorly • As each bears progressively greater body weight.

  11. Posteriorto the vertebral body • Consists of two (right and left)pedicles& laminae. • VERTEBRAL ARCH

  12. vertebralarch + posterior surface of the vertebral body • walls of vertebral foramen

  13. Successionof vertebral foramina • in the articulated vertebral column • forms • vertebralcanal (spinal canal)

  14. Vertebral notches(Incisura vertebralis) • Indentations observed in lateral views of the vertebrae • Superior and inferior to each pedicle • Between the superiorand inferior articular processes posteriorly • Between the corresponding projections of the body anteriorly.

  15. The superior and inferior vertebral notchesof adjacent vertebrae and the IV discs form intervertebral foramina • Intervertebral foramina • Spinal (posterior root) ganglia are located • Spinal nerves emerge from the vertebral column with their accompanying vessels through these foramina.

  16. Regional Characteristics of Vertebrae • vertebraehaving foramina in their transverse processes are cervicalvertebrae

  17. articularfacetsorientation in eachregiondifferent • Movementneeded • articularfacets of thoracicvertebraenearlyvertical, • define an arc centered in the IV disc • this arrangement permits rotation and lateral flexion of the vertebral column in this region.

  18. Regional variations in size and shape of the vertebral canal accommodate the varying thickness of the spinal cord.

  19. CERVICAL VERTEBRAE skeleton of the neck between the cranium & thoracic vertebrae

  20. FEATURES TYPICAL FOR CERVICAL VERTEBRAE Smallest of the 24 movablevertebrae Relatively larger intervertebral discs discs are thin, but relative to their small size; thick. • 3) Greatest range & variety of movement of all the vertebral regions • 4) foramen transversariumin the transverse process

  21. FEATURES TYPICAL FOR CERVICAL VERTEBRAE 5) anterior tubercles of vertebra C6 carotid tubercles Chassaignactubercles

  22. FEATURES TYPICAL FOR CERVICAL VERTEBRAE 6) Spinousprocesses of C3-C6 short and usually bifid in white people

  23. Vertebrae C3-C7 typicalcervicalvertebrae Largevertebralforamina restrictedrotation superolateralmargin uncusof the body uncinateprocess

  24. C7- vertebraprominens • A longspinousprocess • Mostprominent spinous process in 70% of people

  25. Atlas (C1) No body No spinousprocess Widestof the cervical vertebrae Thekidney-shaped, concavesuperiorarticularsurfaces of thelateralmassesarticulatewithoccipitalcondyles.

  26. Anterior and posteriorarches a tubercle in the center of its externalaspect extendbetweenthelateralmassesforming a complete ring. Posteriorarch A wide groove for the vertebral artery on its superior surface. C1 nerve also runs in this groove.

  27. strongest of the cervicalvertebrae C1, carrying the cranium, rotates on C2 (e.g., when a person turns the head to indicate “no”). Axis (C2)

  28. Axis (C2) The distinguishing featureblunt tooth-like dens Lies anterior to the spinalcord. Serves as the pivot about which the rotation of the head occurs.

  29. Axis (C2) • largebifid spinousprocess

  30. THORACIC VERTEBRAE • The thoracic skeleton includes: • 12 pairs of ribs and associated costal cartilages • 12 thoracic vertebrae and the intervertebral discs between them • Sternum

  31. FEATURES TYPICAL FOR THORACIC VERTEBRAE articulation with ribs. 1) Bilateral costal demifacetson the vertebral bodies for articulation with heads of ribs 2)Costal facets on the transverse processes for articulation with tubercles of ribs

  32. FEATURES TYPICAL FOR THORACIC VERTEBRAE articulation with ribs. 3) Articular processes of thoracic vertebrae extend vertically with paired, nearly coronally oriented articular facets define an arc. greatest degree of rotation is permitted here!

  33. FEATURES TYPICAL FOR THORACIC VERTEBRAE 4)Heart-shaped bodies 5) Long, inferiorly slanting spinous processes

  34. T1-T4 vertebrae share some features of cervical vertebrae. The middle four thoracic vertebrae (T5-T8) demonstrate all the features typical of thoracic vertebrae.

  38. LUMBAR VERTEBRAE in the lower back between the thorax and sacrum

  39. FEATURES TYPICAL FOR LUMBAR VERTEBRAE • massivebodies • transverseprocessesprojectposterosuperiorlyas well as laterally. • mammillaryprocesses & accessoryprocesses

  40. SACRUM L. sacred Wedged-shaped Usually composed of 5 fused sacral vertebrae in adults. Located between the hipbones Sacralcanal continuation of thevertebralcanal in thesacrum.

  41. On the pelvic and posterior surfaces of the sacrum four pairs of sacralforamina

  42. Anterior projecting edge of the body of the S1 vertebra Sacral promontory (L. mountain ridge) importantobstetricallandmark

  43. The sacrum supports the vertebral column and forms the posterior part of the bony pelvis. The sacrum is tilted so that it articulates with the L5 vertebra at the lumbosacral angle.

Glavas P, Mac-Thiong JM, Parent S, de Guise JA, Labelle H.

  44. The pelvic surface of the sacrum is smooth and concave. • 4 transverselines • Fusion of the sacral vertebrae starts after age20.
