Lumbarisation of the First Sacral Vertebra a Rare Form of Lumbosacral Transitional Vertebra
In the lumbosacral region, anatomical variations occur with changes in the number of sacral vertebra either by deletion of first sacral vertebra or by the union of fifth lumbar or first coccygeal vertebra with sacrum. Lumbasacral transitional vertebrae (LSTV) is the most common congenital anomalies...
