3D Model of Fracture of Transverse Process of L2
The second lumbar vertebra (L2) is illustrated with a fracture of its transverse process, the bony projection extending laterally from the vertebral body. These fractures often result from direct trauma or muscular strain and usually do not affect spinal stability. This 3D model clearly shows the fracture site and surrounding anatomy, serving as a valuable tool for medical learners and clinicians to understand the nature and implications of transverse process injuries in the lumbar spine.
