“…The ethnical and racial differences over different geographical areas have influences over the various lumbar canal diameters. Thus, a population specific definitive normal value is required for reference whenever we are estimating the lumbar canal stenosis and associated pathologies [18]. The best method to diagnose spinal canal stenosis is computed tomography with added myelography but plain computed tomography along with magnetic resonance imaging is also a good alternative [5].…”

The lumbosacral spine is the region of transition from the appendicular to the axial skeleton. Accidents, degenerative conditions, congenital defects and neoplastic metastases often affect the lumbar region. Low back pain resulting from lumbar canal stenosis is one of the major complaints in young to adult population. Apart from that lumbar vertebrae morphometry is required in many surgical as well as anaesthetic procedures.Aims and objectives: The present study was undertaken to determine the morphometry of human cadaveric lumbar vertebrae and to compare findings with other authors and forming a baseline data in relation to various lumbar canal pathologies that can be of help to the medical and surgical experts.
