Bifid L5 refers to a condition observed in X-ray imaging where the fifth lumbar vertebra (L5) exhibits a bifid or split appearance, often due to a developmental anomaly. This can occur as a result of incomplete fusion of the neural arch during embryonic development. While bifid L5 may be asymptomatic, it can sometimes be associated with lower Back pain or other spinal issues. Diagnosis and management depend on the presence of symptoms and the overall clinical context.

What is the bifid process?

The bifid process, also known as the bifid rib or bifid process of the rib, refers to a congenital anomaly where a rib is split or forked, resulting in two separate ends. This condition is typically asymptomatic and is often discovered incidentally during imaging studies. It can occur in various rib pairs, but is most commonly seen in the cervical ribs. While usually benign, it may occasionally be associated with other anatomical variations or conditions.
