A. The lateral view of a typical lumbar vertebra shows the large body and zygapophyseal facets. B. The superior view of a typical lumbar vertebra shows transverse and spinous processes and superior zygapophyseal facets. C. The posterior view of a lumbar vertebra shows the location of the mamillary and accessory processes. The mamillary processes appear as small, smooth bumps on the posterior edges of each zygapophyseal facet. The accessory processes are easily recognizable as the bony prominences on the posterior surfaces of the transverse processes, close to the attachment of the transverse processes to the pedicles.
