Özet

Background The lumbosacral intrathecal anatomy is complex because of the density of nerve roots in the cauda equina. Space-occupying lesions, including disc herniation, trauma and tumor, within the spinal canal may compromise the nerve roots, causing severe clinical syndromes. The goal of this study is to provide spinal surgeons with a detailed anatomical description of the intrathecal nerve roots and to emphasize their clinical importance.
