RT Journal A1 Rush JA T1 LUmbar puncture and pseudotumor cerebri JF Archives of Neurology JO Archives of Neurology YR 1983 FD June 1 VO 40 IS 6 SP 394 OP 394 DO 10.1001/archneur.1983.04050060094030 UL http://dx.doi.org/10.1001/archneur.1983.04050060094030 AB To the Editor.  —I feel obliged to respond to Corbett et al (Archives 1982;39:461-474), who misrepresented a statement of mine by taking it out of context.1 They imputed to me the "idea" (their word) of not favoring performing a lumbar puncture to diagnose pseudotumor cerebri. Had they accurately read my remarks, they could have distinguished between a simple factual statement and an alleged idea. A careful rereading of the original article might obviate their perceived need to "take issue."
