    J Neurosurg Spine 18:236-42. 2013
    ..Inadvertent resection of these highly vascularized masses may risk catastrophic intraoperative hemorrhage with no proven benefit as compared with medical treatment, which usually provides excellent long-term outcomes...

    Tobias A Mattei
    Department of Neurosurgery, University of Illinois at Peoria, USA Electronic address
    Med Hypotheses 80:582-6. 2013
    ..Finally the author provides overall directions for future research on the issue with special attention to the causal links which are supported by weak scientific evidence or by evidence from single studies...
  3. ncbi Addressing the siphoning effect in new shunt designs by decoupling the activation pressure and the pressure gradient across the valve
    Tobias A Mattei
    Department of Neurosurgery, Illinois Neurological Institute, The University of Illinois College of Medicine at Peoria, Peoria, Illinois 61637, USA
    J Neurosurg Pediatr 11:181-7. 2013
    ..In this new shunt design, the flow is expected to depend only on the intracranial pressure and not on the pressure gradient across the valve, thus avoiding the so-called siphoning effect...

    Tobias A Mattei
    Department of Neurosurgery, Illinois Neurological Institute, The University of Illinois College of Medicine at Peoria, Peoria, Illinois 61637, USA
    J Neurosurg Pediatr 11:188-97. 2013
    ..The second component was designed to be used as an external device outside of the body and function as a power supply and control system. Ultimately, flow will only occur when the system is powered by the external device...
