The document discusses writing case reports for medical publication. It defines a case report as a description and discussion of a clinical case that presents newly found conditions, manifestations, disease mechanisms, or drug effects. Case reports can teach students and health professionals and be published in research or teaching journals. They usually follow the structure of introduction, case description, and discussion/conclusions. When writing case reports, authors should consult the target journal's instructions, cite literature selectively, and focus the discussion on why the case is being reported and implications for clinical care or research. Potential issues include obtaining documentation, maintaining confidentiality, and style points like word usage.
