Abstract

The case report continues to occupy a place in the scientific literature both for its pedagogical value and for its usefulness in showing the diversity of human beings and their diseases. From the academic perspective, the publication of cases nourishes the curriculum vitae and allows students and professionals to become familiar with the world of scientific publications. This article summarizes the role of the case report in the medical literature, the characteristics of the publishable case, and the structure that the final document should have.
