title: [Vascularization of the lumbar spine in the human fetus].
abstract: The vascularization of the lumbar spine has been studied in 19 human fetuses of both sexes after filling of the arterial system with Micropaque. Structural radiographs were taken and lumbar arteries with their branches were marked in every segment examined. The frequency of branches incidence was described. The differences in vascularization between left and right side of the lumbar spine within medullar arteries and articular processes arteries amounted to 20 and 5 per cent respectively.
