Case of the Month
A monthly clinical scenario with helpful take home messages
Whilst primarily written for trainees preparing for the FFICM examination, these short articles can be used as 'quick CPD’ by anyone. Each article is essentially a summary of a topic rather than a review article, but they aim to provide key points in an accessible format.
