2023年10月30日 · These foramina allow the anterior rami of the first four sacral spinal nerves to pass through. The midline of the dorsal surface of the sacrum bears a projection of bone known as the median sacral crest. This crest is palpable and …

2021年12月27日 · These nerves enter the sacrum from the vertebral foramen of the lumbar vertebrae through the sacral canal. From there, they branch out and exit the bone through four pairs of sacral foramina or the sacral hiatus, present at the bottom end of the canal.

2023年10月11日 · Each sacral foramina (plural of foramen) is a channel for the sacral nerves and blood vessels. There are small ridges that develop between each of the fused sacral vertebrae called transverse ridges or transverse lines. Along the …

At each end of the transverse ridges, are the four anterior sacral foramina, diminishing in size in line with the smaller vertebral bodies. The foramina give exit to the anterior divisions of the sacral nerves and entrance to the lateral sacral arteries.

…transverse processes of the lower sacral vertebrae, on each side, are a series of four openings (sacral foramina); the sacral nerves and blood vessels pass through these openings. A sacral canal running down through the centre of the sacrum represents the end of the vertebral canal; the functional spinal cord…

2024年9月2日 · Internally, the central canal of the vertebral column continues along the core of the sacrum and ends at the 4 th sacral foramina, as the sacral hiatus. There are two surfaces of the sacrum – a coarse dorsal surface and a relatively smooth pelvic surface.

The sacral foramina allow for the passage of nerves and blood vessels, connecting the sacrum to the rest of the body. The sacral curve, formed by the sacral vertebrae, helps to maintain spinal alignment and distribute weight evenly.

2025年1月31日 · From the sacral canal these nerves branch out and exit the sacrum through four pairs of holes on the sides of the canal called the sacral foramina or through the sacral hiatus at the inferior end of the canal.

At the ends of the transverse ridges are seen the anterior sacral foramina, four in number on either side, somewhat rounded in form, diminishing in size from above downward, and directed lateralward and forward; they give exit to the anterior divisions of the sacral nerves and entrance to the lateral sacral arteries.

the openings between the fused sacral vertebrae transmitting the sacral nerves. The anterior sacral foramina transmit anterior (ventral) primary rami of the sacral nerves. The posterior sacral foramina give passage to posterior (dorsal) primary rami of the sacral nerves.
