“…Studies have also claimed that the thickness of right and left pedicles were almost same 23,24 which is also supported by the results of the current study. A significant difference between the pedicle thickness of males and females were also reported in a study 8 which is inconsistent with this study.…”

“…In contrast, a study reported, the pedicle breadth gradually increases from L1 to L3 vertebrae and slightly decreases at L4 and L5 vertebrae among adult Punjabi males 24 . Another study also reported that the breadth of the pedicle gradually increases from L1 to L3 vertebrae and again decreases at L4 and L5 25 .…”

“…A study also reported that thickness of the pedicle gradually increased from L1 to L5 vertebrae and thickness was nearly similar in L2 and L3 vertebrae 25 . Another study reported that thickness of the pedicle gradually increases from L1 to L4 vertebrae and less at L5 vertebra among adult Punjabi males 24 .…”

Background: The vertebral column is the central pillar of the body which has cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral and coccygeal parts. Out of these, the lumbar part is made up of five lumbar vertebrae which lies between the thoracic part above and the sacral part below. Objective: The study aimed to measure pedicle dimensions of lumbar vertebrae by using computed tomography scan. Methodology: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study which was conducted on 115 images of computed tomography scan collected from the Department of Radio-Diagnosis, Dhulikhel Hospital between May and October 2019 after receiving ethical approval from the Institutional Review Committee. All the scans available in the department were taken for the study. Point estimate at 95% Confidence Interval was calculated along with frequency and proportion for binary data. Data analysis was done in the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 16 (SPSS 16.0). Results: The pedicle chord length and breadth progressively decrease from L1 to L5 vertebral levels and pedicle thickness gradually increases from L1 to L5 vertebrae on both sides in both genders. The pedicle chord lengths were found significantly different whereas breadth and thickness were insignificantly different between males and females at all lumbar vertebral levels except at L1 for breadth. Conclusions: The pedicle chord length and breadth gradually decreases whereas thickness increases from L1 to L5 vertebral levels amongst Nepalese population.

So we can say that the findings are almost same[19]. JaskaranSingh et al (2014) The study was done on 20 cadaver and twelve parameters of vertebrae were measured.…”

It has been suggested that reduced inter-pedicular distance is one of the cause of primary narrowing of the spinal canal may lead to low back pain.Transpedicular approaches are being widely used in many surgeries such as bone biopsy, bone grafting, Pedicle screw fixation, vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty. The morphometric data of lumbar vertebra from Udaipur district i.e. in southern Rajasthan is to the best of our knowledge, virtually unexplored so we under took this study.Aims and objectives: The present study aims at determining the morphometric norms of Pedicle of the lumbar vertebra in Udaipur zone measured in dried bone. In this study the following measurements on Pedicle of lumbar vertebra are taken i.e. pedicle height, pedicle width and Interpedicular distance. Materials and methods:The present study was done on the 110 dry adult human lumbar vertebrae from various medical colleges of Udaipur. The morphometrical data of the Pedicle of human lumbar vertebrae were measured and analysed. Digital vernier calliper was used to measure the morphometric data.Result and discussion: The pedicle height of Pedicle decreased from L1 to L5 except in L2 and width of Pedicle increased from L1 to L5. Interpedicular distanced gradually increased from L1 to L5.

“…The values of the PW in our study are comparable to some studies; 2,6,12 however, few studies have documented smaller values 11,16 while many studies have shown higher values as compared to ours. 8,13,17 Some authors have noted a much smaller values in some of their specimens at L1 11,14 and a much higher value at L5 level. 13,16,18 L2 and L5 vertebra on the left side had the lowest (5.38 mm) and highest (15.04 mm) value of pedicle width in our study.…”

Background: Pedicle screw instrumentation has revolutionized spine surgery on account of its superiority over other stabilization systems. It is safe when properly placed and versatile for a range of procedure from fracture fixation to complex deformity correction. Sound anatomical knowledge of the pedicle may also be helpful during surgical approach to lumbar foramina disc herniation and epidural steroid injection as well as in the diagnosis of some lumbar degenerative diseases and chronic back pain. In this study we aimed to provide locoregional data on lumbar pedicle morphometry of Nepalese population. Methods: A descriptive observational study was conducted on 50 dry adult human lumbar vertebrae of unknown sex at Chitwan Medical College from August 2020 to December 2020. Pedicular width, height and the interpedicular distance were measured. All the data were numerally coded in excel and analysis was done in Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 20. Results: The mean width of the pedicles of left side gradually increased as we moved down the vertebrae and measured 7.43 ±0.84 mm in L1 and 12.18±1.71 mm in L5 vertebrae. The mean width of the pedicles on the right side, however, showed an increasing trend with a lower value at L3 level and was measured as 7.91± 1.17 mm. The mean height of the pedicles alternatively decreased and increased down the vertebrae for both the sides. The mean interpedicular distance gradually increased craniocaudally and was found to be 20.35±0.95 for L1 and 25.97±3.58 mm for L5 vertebrae. Conclusions: This study confirmed the measurement of lumbar pedicles’ dimensions and provides its regional data on Nepalese population. These data may be critical for clinicians working near the vicinity of the lumbar pedicles.
