Classification of conjoined nerve roots.[1]

Type General Anomaly n-A n-B

Type 2 Variable nerve roots in an intervertebral foramen 2A: A foramen is unoccupied by a nerve, with the foramen above or below containing two sets of roots 2B: A foramen contains a supernumerary set of roots
Type 3 Extradural anastomoses between roots in which a bundle of nerve fibres leaves one dural sleeve to enter an adjacent sleeve. May be superimposed on a type 2
