The lumbar spine consists of five large vertebrae (L1L5) forming a lordotic curve in the lower back. These vertebrae provide stability, bear body weight, and allow flexion, extension, and limited rotation. Intervertebral discs act as shock absorbers, while ligaments and paraspinal muscles support movement and posture. Knowledge of lumbar anatomy is essential for understanding common conditions such as disc herniation, spinal stenosis, or spondylolisthesis, and for guiding surgical procedures, anesthesia administration, and pain management interventions.
