| | The Vertebrae |
 | | The 1st, 10th, 11th and 12th vertebrae have a complete costal facet for articulation with the head of the same numbered rib, lying close to where the pedicle and body meet. |
 | | Cervical vertebrae are characterised by small vertebral bodies and perforated transverse processes. |
 | | On the posterior surface of the sacrum lies the sacral hiatus, a space formed during the fusion of the sacral vertebrae. |
