Anatomy of The Human Lumbar Interspinous Ligaments: A Cadaveric Study
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Objective: Different views are available on the anatomy of the interspinous ligaments. In depth study was done on the lumbar interspinous ligaments to study the anatomy of the lumbar interspinous ligaments and co-relate the function with their anatomy.Materials and methods: Lumbar regions of thirty formalin fixed cadavers were dissected. The direction of the fibres and their attachments were noted and their function was co-related with their anatomy. Results: The anatomy of ligaments in the upper space (b/w L1-L2 and L2-L3) was same and for the ligaments in the middle space (b/w L3-L4 and L4_L5 ) was also same and the ligaments of the lower space i.e. (b/w L5-S1)were different from both the above space ligaments.As we moved from above downwards the postero-cranial direction of fibres in the upper space became horizontal in the middle space and then vertical in the lowest space
