2024年7月24日 · Vertebral pedicles are two short, thick projections that extend from the back of the vertebral body. Each vertebra has a pair of pedicles which connect the front part of the vertebra, the vertebral body, to the back part, the vertebral arch.

2020年4月25日 · (a) Schematic of a right-side view of a lumbar vertebra showing the position of the pedicle (P) between the vertebral body in front (1) and posterior arch. The posterior point of entry to the pedicle is located at the junction of the upper facet joint (2), the lamina (3) and the transverse process (4); it is separated from the lower facet joint ...

The region between the transverse process and the vertebral body is called the pedicle. The vertebrae are joined by facet joints (zygapophyseal joints) , which are covered by articulating cartilage to provide smooth movements between the joint surfaces.

Two pedicles extend from the sides of the vertebral body to join the body to the arch. The pedicles are short thick processes that extend, one from each side, posteriorly, from the junctions of the posteriolateral surfaces of the centrum, on its upper surface.

2022年6月6日 · The pedicle is a short projection of bone that comes directly off the back of the vertebral body. The pedicle lies between the back of the vertebral body and the transverse process. There are two pedicles per vertebra, one on each side.

The pedicle is a very strong, cylindrical, anatomic bridge between the dorsal spinal elements and the vertebral body. It is composed of a strong shell of cortical bone and a core of cancellous bone. Pedicle size and angulation varies throughout the spinal column.

The region between the transverse process and the vertebral body is called the pedicle. The L3 and L4 vertebrae are connected at the back by a pair of facet joints (zygapophyseal joints), which are covered by articulating cartilage to provide smooth movements between the joint surfaces.
