After leaving the intervertebral foramen, a typical spinal nerve almost immediately splits into branches, termed rami. The smaller of the two main branches. Innervates the deep muscle of the back and the skin of the back.
Each dorsal root presents a swelling, the spinal (dorsal root) ganglion, which lies near or within the intervertebral foramen. Distal to the ganglion, each dorsal root combines with the corresponding ventral root to form a spinal nerve (figs. 41-2 and 41-3). There are 31 pairs of spinal nerves: 8 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 sacral, and 1 coccygeal.
