    Study Notes

    Plexuses and Spinal Nerves

    • The lumbosacral plexus is located in the lumbar and sacral regions of the vertebral column.
    • The lumbosacral plexus is formed by the spinal nerves L1-S4.
    • The brachial plexus and lumbosacral plexus have functions related to the transmission of motor and sensory information.
    • The lumbar region has 5 pairs of spinal nerves (L1-L5).
    • The sacral spinal nerves correspond to the sacrum region of the vertebral column.
    • The cervical and lumbar regions give rise to the brachial plexus and lumbosacral plexus, respectively.
