Main Methods:

  • Manifest content analysis of 1,005 case reports published between 2010-2019 in 12 medical journals.
  • Classification of case reports into detection, extension, diffusion, or fascination categories.
  • Analysis of 673 eligible case reports.

Main Results:

  • 67.0% of identified manuscripts met criteria for case reports.
  • Diffusion case reports were most common (59.1%), used to educate on known phenomena.
  • Fascination case reports were least common (1.2%).

Conclusions:

  • Case reports can be categorized by their contribution to medical literature.
  • Most published case reports aim to educate clinicians on existing knowledge.
