Rate of presence of 11 thoracic vertebrae and 6 lumbar vertebrae in asymptomatic Chinese adult volunteers [PDF]
Background An increasing number of studies on spinal morphology in asymptomatic Asian and Western patients have been reported. Variation in spinal anatomy among patients is considered as the cause of wrong-level surgery in up to 40% of cases. The present

Small‐ to medium‐sized mammals show greater morphological disparity in cervical than lumbar vertebrae across different terrestrial modes of locomotion [PDF]
During mammalian terrestrial locomotion, body flexibility facilitated by the vertebral column is expected to be correlated with observed modes of locomotion, known as gait (e.g., sprawl, trot, hop, bound, gallop).

Morphometric Study of Atypical Lumbar Vertebrae and their Clinical Significance [PDF]
Introduction: Lumbar pedicles are short and strong. They form an important part of lumbar spine and play role in transmission of weight from neural arch to the anterior part of vertebral column.
