Resident & Fellow Section Unstructured Abstract Guidelines

Please follow these guidelines for the Resident & Fellow Section unstructured abstract section. Do not reveal the diagnosis within the abstract.

  1.        Statement of the clinical problem addressed by the case
  2.        Brief description of case presentation
  3.        Summary of the key teaching point in the case

For example:

Evaluating patients with wrist drop is common and can be complicated particularly in patients with underlying malignancy. In this case, a 63-year-old patient presented with new left upper extremity isolated wrist drop. The patient reported 3 weeks of rapidly progressive isolated wrist drop that ultimately evolved to include motor and sensory dysfunction in the left upper extremity. This case highlights the diagnostic approach to patients with wrist drop and summarizes a stepwise approach to developing a comprehensive differential diagnosis and investigating likely etiologies. Readers walk through this stepwise approach ultimately arriving at a leading diagnosis.
