Neck and Trunk
Vertebral Curves

The vertebrae are arranged in such a way
as to form anterior-posterior (concaveconvex) curves in the vertebral column,
which can be seen from the side. These
curves provide the vertebral column with
much more strength and resilience,
approximately 10 times more than if it
were a straight rod.
Spinal column




7 cervical vertebrae
12 thoracic vertebrae
5 lumbar vertebrae
Sacrum is composed of 5 fused vertebrae
Joint Motions






The vertebral column is considered
triaxial, with motion in all three planes:
Flexion
Extension
Hyperextension
Lateral bending
Rotation
Cervical Spine


Atlanto-occipital joint: articulation
between the head and C1 (atlas)
Primary motion is flexion and extension,
however, rotation also occurs between the
atlas and axis, with articulation between
the dens of the axis and atlas permitting
rotation movement.
Common Vertebral Column
Pathologies







Thoracic outlet syndrome: compression of brachial plexus and
subclavian artery and vein that runs from neck to axilla. The
thoracic outlet is located between the first rib, clavicle and scalene
muscles.
Torticollis: “twisted neck:” head is laterally bent to one side and
rotated toward the opposite side
Sciatica: pain that runs down the posterior thigh and leg, d/t
pressure on the sciatic nerve
Lordosis: abnormally increased curve of the lumbar spine
(“swayback”)
Flat back: abnormally decreased lumbar curve
Kyphosis: abnormally increased thoracic curve
Scoliosis: any amount of lateral curve in spinal column
Common Vertebral Column
Pathologies






Spondylosis: degenerative disorder of the vertebral structure and
function, which may lead to nerve root and spinal cord compression
Spinal stenosis: a narrowing of the vertebral canal
Herniated disks: weakness or degeneration of the annulus
fibrosus, allowing a portion of the nucleus pulposus to bulge
(herniated) through the annulus. Symptoms occur when herniation
places pressure on spinal cord or nerve root. L4 and L5 are most
common sites for disk lesions.
Spondylolysis: vertebral defect in the pars interarticularis (the part
of the lamina between the superior and inferior articular processes).
Spondylolisthesis: one vertebra slips forward in relation to an
adjacent vertebra (commonly L5 slipping anterior on S1)
Osteoporosis: disease in which bone is removed faster than it can
be laid down, leading to a decrease in bone mass and density
