Abstract

Case reports remain an important contributor to clinical research, providing valuable insights into diagnostic complexity, individual patient outcomes, and novel therapeutic approaches. In chiropractic care, where individualized treatment plans are paramount, case reports can offer profound insights into patient diagnosis, management, response to treatment, and innovative therapeutic techniques. However, despite their importance, barriers exist to creating and publishing case reports for many students and clinicians. This commentary seeks to acknowledge the value and opportunity of case reports in chiropractic research, while addressing the challenges clinicians face in producing them. Furthermore, it proposes an abbreviated case report format that maintains scientific rigor, is accessible to students and practitioners, and maximizes the potential of the format.
