ACC may seldom manifest as a skin marker of SCM. Our patients are unique examples of SCM presenting with ACC, but not requiring surgery. It is important to recognize ACC as a cutaneous sign of SCM, and to refer these patients to radiologic evaluation as soon as possible.

Cervical lipomyelomeningocele is a rare congenital spinal pathology. Lipomyelomeningocele is the commonest cause of congenital tethering, which causes neurological deterioration due to the conus medullaris and root ischemia. Early intervention is recommended even in cases with normal neurological examinations in order to prevent deterioration but our patient with cervical lipomyelomeningocele had a normal neurological examination despite his age (22 year-old) and had no urodynamic dysfunction.
