Resumen
[EN]The Lumbo-Sacral Spine is a structure of the spine that supports
one of the greatest burdens of the human body. It constitutes a
biomechanical unit and is formed by 5 lumbar vertebrae distributed
in such a way that each supports a weight. The Lumbo-Sacral Spine
distributes a load and acts as a shock absorber for the spine thanks
to its flexibility.
The knowledge of the morphology of this spinal structure and its
articulation with the first sacral vertebra is fundamental to
determine the biomechanical behavior of the entire spinal column.
Furthermore, it allows the study of its type of support, its stability
and degree of cushioning, its mobility and, in short, all its cinematic
and dynamic characteristics.
The present work presents a morphological study of the lumbar
spine and the lumbosacral articulation of 108 non-pathological
adult individuals and without regular and demanding physical or
sportive physical activity. The sample consists of simple x-rays of
the sagittal plane.
The objective proposed in the present work is to obtain a normal
lumbosacral column model of a significant population studied as a
control group. Obtaining the proposed model allows knowledge
and characterization of the distribution of the non-pathological
population and its deviations from the most frequent values.
The typing of the lumbar morphology of a control group makes it
possible to have a decision tool at the population level to establish
a preventive or healthy policy based on the analysis of the risks and
priority criteria for action. The incidence of this model in the
prevention of pathologies of the lumbar spine has a direct incidence
with the labor, personal and social cost that this type of pathologies
supposes.
