Article Synopsis
- Alterations in the ossification process can lead to variations and anomalies in the neural arch of the vertebrae.
- One rare anomaly is the absence of the lumbar articular process, often seen in the inferior articular processes of the L4 or L5 vertebrae.
- The report highlights two cases of Oppenheimer's ossicle, a more common variation involving non-union at the tip of the articular process, as observed through multi-detector computed tomography.
