| 释义 | vertebrae plural ofvertebraspecialized Examples of vertebraevertebrae There are compression fractures of the ninth thoracic through second lumbar vertebrae.

Although there are no preserved vertebrae, it is probable that the first pterygiophore inserted anterior to the first neural spine. The spines at the rear of the cervical vertebrae are quite short. Six fused vertebrae are present, and the first would originally have borne a free rib. On closer inspection, the central spine has rectangular blocks of material, not vertebrae, and these seem to signify the constituent actions of the role. Films were slightly better although visualising vertebrae was still difficult. The separation of vertebrae into caudal and precaudal portions appears rather problematic. Most commonly affected bones are vertebrae (50%), hands (35%), the skull (28%) and the pelvis (22%). Since all 17 skulls were associated with cervical vertebrae, and in some cases with hyoid bones, the heads evidently were fresh when they were interred. The next stage is, typically, biconcave vertebrae, then wedge-shaped vertebral bodies and, finally, complete compression fractures. It opposes the cricoid cartilage against the cervical vertebrae, compressing the lumen of the upper oesophagus. There are five sacral ribs and five fused vertebrae. The third and fourth vertebrae bear large and thick pleural ribs attached to the parapophyses. More common problems are osteomyelitis of foot bones, and infections, other than tuberculosis, of vertebrae. These examples are from corpora and from sources on the web.
