The sacrum bone in the posterior pelvis comes from the fusing of 5 sacral vertebrae, which are numbered from superior (S1) to anterior (S5). The sacral bones fully fuse typically by around age 23, but sometimes the S1 vertebra does not fus with the others. When this happens, it's called lumbarization.

What are the consequences of lumbarisation of the s1?

Lumbarization (US) lumbarisation (UK) refers to a spinal bone that takes on some of the appearances and physical characteristics of another type of vertebrae or spinal bone. At S1 lumbarisation means the S1 segment, which is usually, one of five fused segments making up the sacrum or tail bone, is not fully fused or attached to the rest of the tail bone. IT is a "sacral" segment that looks like a "lumbar" segment. It appears to be 6th lumbar vertebrae. It may have a disc or a rudimentary disc space. Functionally, a lumbarized S1 usually does not have all the functions of a normal lumbar vertebra. In most instances, this finding is interesting, but does not usually cause pain or disability. In some rare cases the joint may become irritated and painful due to injury.
