REM (beta) Reading Early Medicine

cases

Writing in cases dates back at least to the classic Hippocratic text Epidemics, but case writing became a more popular genre, with works including dozens and dozens of individual cases being published. Cases are descriptions of single instances of an ailment, usually describing the process of the illness, what therapeutic measures were taken, and the outcome.
