'''Arnold-Chiari malformation''' is a congenital anomaly of the [[brain]].

Arnold-Chiari Malformation II occurs in almost all children born with both [[spina bifida]] and [[hydrocephalus]], but ACM I is typically seen in children and adults without spina bifida. The scale of severity is rated I - IV, with IV being the most severe. <ref>Barkovich AJ, Wippold FJ, Sherman JL, Citrin CM.
