Prepare your submission

Your clinical case must be clear, educational, practical and real.

The purpose of a clinical case presentation is to communicate diagnostic reasoning in the light of the current ESC Clinical Practice Guidelines providing a clear description of the patient’s condition and further management options based on these guidelines.

Your case needs to be educational and not necessarily rare or unusual.

Please consult: 

• The Clinical Cases submission rules and guidelines
• The Clinical Cases submission Topic List

Clinical Case Sessions

Clinical cases will be presented in highly interactive and educational sessions featured in the dedicated Clinical Case Corner.
Clinicians will present their cases to two experts in the topic who will moderate the session, facilitate interaction with the audience, prompt discussions, challenge the presenters and the audience.
