Q

Throughout the vertebral column there is usually bony overlap to afford more protection to the vertebral canal. However, in certain areas (e.g. Lumbar) there is more space between vertebrae and movement of the vertebral column can also widen these spaces.

  1. Can you think of any advantages and disadvantages to these spaces?
A

Advantage - Space for lumbus puncture.

Disadvantages -
