The lumbosacral ligament or lateral lumbosacral ligament is a ligament that helps to stabilise the lumbosacral joint. The ligament's medial attachment is at (the inferior border of) transverse process of lumbar vertebra L5; its lateral attachment is at the ala of sacrum.[2]
The lumbosacral ligament extends obliquely inferior-ward from its medial attachment. Superiorly, it is partially continuous with the inferior margin of the iliolumbar ligament[2] (the lumbosarcal ligament be considered an inferior subdivision of the iliolumbar ligament).[1]
