Anatomical terminology
[edit on Wikidata]

The lumbar triangle can refer to either the inferior lumbar (Petit) triangle, which lies superficially, or the superior lumbar (Grynfeltt) triangle,[1] which is deep and superior to the inferior triangle. Of the two, the superior triangle is the more consistently found in cadavers[2] and is more commonly the site of herniation; however, the inferior lumbar triangle is often simply called the lumbar triangle, perhaps owing to its more superficial location and ease in demonstration.
