| left lumbar lymph nodes | The chain of lymph nodes associated with the aorta in the abdomen; it is divided into three groups: lateral aortic lymph nodes on the left of the aorta; pre-aortic lymph nodes in front of the aorta; post-aortic lymph nodes, behind the aorta. Synonym: nodi lymphatici lumbales sinistri, lumbar lymph nodes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lowest lumbar arteries | Origin, middle sacral; distribution, sacrum and iliac muscle; anastomosis, deep circumflex iliac artery. Synonym: arteriae lumbales imae. (05 Mar 2000) |

Synonym: arteria lumbalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lumbar branch of iliolumbar artery | <anatomy, artery> Terminal branch of iliolumbar artery (with iliac branch) which ascends to supply psoas major and quadratus lumborum muscles; anastomosis: fourth lumbar artery. Synonym: ramus lumbalis arteriae iliolumbalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lumbar cistern | Enlargement of subarachnoid space between inferior end of spinal cord (vertebral level L-2) and inferior end of subarachnoid space or dura mater (vertebral level S2); occupied by the dorsal and ventral roots of lumbosacral spinal nerves (which constitute the cauda equina), the filum terminal, and cerebrospinal fluid.

| lumbar disk removal | A surgical procedure which is designed to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerve root that is being caused by a slipped or herniated disk in the lumbar spine.

An alternative to this is a micro-disc surgery. (27 Sep 1997) |

Synonym: intumescentia lumbalis, lumbar enlargement of spinal cord. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lumbar enlargement of spinal cord | A spindle-shaped swelling of the spinal cord beginning at the level of the tenth thoracic vertebra and tapering into the medullary cone, with maximum thickness opposite the last thoracic vertebra, consequential to the innervation of the lower limb. Synonym: intumescentia lumbalis, lumbar enlargement of spinal cord. (05 Mar 2000) |
