    Author: Garg K, Mahapatra AK, Tandon V.
    Journal: Asian J Neurosurg; 2015; 10(3):226-8. PubMed ID: 26396613.
    Abstract:
    Split cord malformation (SCM) is a rare congenital anomaly in which the cord is split over a portion of its length to form double dural tubes (SCM type I) or two hemicords in a single dural sheath (SCM type II). Dachling Pang classified SCM into 2 types with type I SCM consisting of two hemicords, each contained within its own dural sheath and separated by rigid osseocartilaginous median septum. We report a rare case of SCM type 1 c in which there was a single dural sheath.
