nipple-to-inframammary line (N–C) to chest circumference were independent predictors of CTS (P = 0.05). Conclusion: The incidence of CTS in patients with macromastia is raised compared to previous epidermiological studies of prevalence. Age, chest circumference and breast size have a positive correlation with the incidence of CTS. doi:10.1016/j.clinph.2006.07.237

JL is a 12-year-old girl who presented with a five-year history of stereotyped events. Each episode would begin with blinking of the right eye followed by dystonic posturing of the left side. Multiple such episodes occurred every day. She experienced generalised tonic clonic seizures rarely. Routine EEG demonstrated seizure activity over the right frontal lobe and MRI scan revealed a dysplastic right frontal lobe. Her seizures remained intractable despite multiple antiepileptic drugs so right frontal lobectomy was performed with corticography. Thus far seizure frequency and severity is improved although the patient still experiences daily events. Histology is awaited. A review of the literature has revealed that while ipsilateral eye blinking is rare it is a good localising sign. doi:10.1016/j.clinph.2006.07.238
