Thoracic spinal nerves T1-T12 Spinal cord Vertebral arch Lumbar enlargement Denticulate ligament Denticulate ligament Conus medullaris Dorsal median sulcus Arachnoid mater Cauda equina Lumbar spinal nerves L1- L5 Dorsal root Spinal dura mater Filum terminale Thoracic spinal cord, showing denticulate ligaments Sacral spinal nerves S1- S5 Spinal cord Cauda equina Coccygeal spinal nerve Co1 First lumbar vertebral arch (cut across) Conus medullaris The spinal cord and its nerve roots, with the bony vertebral arches removed. The dura mater and arachnoid mater are cut open and reflected laterally. Spinous process of second lumbar vertebra Filum terminale Inferior end of spinal cord, showing conus medullaris, cauda equina, and filum terminale.
