Abstract
The sacral hiatus is a gap on the dorsal surface of the sacrum formed by the non-fusion of the lamina of the fourth andfifth sacral vertebrae. A multitude of anatomical alternations of hiatus have been reported involving metric and non-metricparameters. These have been identified during radiological investigations, surgical procedures or discovered in anatomicaland anthropological research studies. For successful outcomes in the clinical setting, it is vital that awareness of identifiedand newly discovered anatomical variations is achieved through review of literature. Objective of this article is to providea systematic review of the reported anatomical variations of sacral hiatus with its clinical significance.Key words: Anatomical variations, Clinical relevance, Sacral hiatus
