Spinal Cord Development
Newborn: L3 Adult: L1 – L2 Vertebral column
grows faster than the spinal cord
Spinal Cord Runs through the vertebral
canal, from foramen magnum to second lumbar vertebra
Regions Cervical (8) Thoracic (12) Lumbar (5) Sacral (5) Coccygeal (1)
31 pairs of spinal nerves (mixed)
Enlargements Cervical : upper limbs Lumbar : lower limbs
