  -> It's not a sentence it's phrase. Like when you name something. That's what I thought of.

vertebre lombari


Explanation:
In italiano non c'è bisogno di puntualizzare che le vertebre sono spinali. Quelle più basse sono le lombari. Rif. "Microsoft Encarta 2000"

Vertebre basse / vertebre inferiori


Explanation:
No need for "spine", since the spine is the only part of the skeleton where vertebrae can be found.

However, I'd say just "vertebre basse (or "inferiori")", without specifying a spine segment, because it's unclear whether they're referring to the lumbar portion of the spine, or the lowest part of the spine, i.e., the sacrococcygeal portion.

colonna dorso-lombare


Explanation:
Non credo sia necessario dire anche il termine 'vertebre' quando già si dice 'colonna' e si cita la zona.
