Hebrew translation:thoracolumbar
Explanation:
In some fields and in some languages, for some reason, the thoracic spine is called "dorsal spine". I think it is a legacy term derived from the Latin. Over the years, medical/biological terminology has replaced Latin (old) terms in favor of English (new) terms.

Asker: תודה איתן. אז בעברית גבי-מותני? המקור היה בספרדית ובתרגום לאנגלית לא הכול "עבר" כמו שצריך
