Definitions
pleurapophysis
Noun
A pleurapophysis is a rib or a rib-like process of a vertebra, especially in the lumbar region where it is not a true rib but a transverse process that resembles a rib.
The pleurapophysis in the lumbar region can sometimes be mistaken for a true rib due to its similar appearance.
