Excerpt

This chapter guides clinicians through the process of writing cases. The chapter includes a template, and prospective authors of cases are advised to start with creating this template in a Word file, ready for multiple cases.

Writing, reviewing, and rewriting a case may take several days, but great cases can be used many times and even exchanged with other institutions, as if were they an academic publication.
