Back pain or a compressive myelopathy are two of the most common presenting symptoms. CT myelogram or MRI can aid in the diagnosis of arachnoid web, and management of includes surgical and conservative approaches. Herein, we describe two interesting cases of arachnoid webs highlighting the diagnostic approach and differences in the approach to management of each case. Copyright ♭ 2022 Elsevier Inc.
