Loin
The loins, or lumbus, are the sides between the lower ribs and pelvis, and the lower part of the back.[1][2][3] The term is used to describe the anatomy of humans and quadrupeds, such as horses,[4][5] pigs,[6][7] or cattle.[8] The anatomical reference also applies to particular cuts of meat, including tenderloin or sirloin steak.[2]
