| Description | This booklet offers some practical guidelines on how to compose one of the basic written genres in medicine - the medical case report. The text draws on corpus-based genre research into clinical case reporting carried out by the author during his doctoral studies in the field of English linguistics. The aim of the booklet is to provide help to novice medical students in writing medical case reports and getting them published. To achieve this aim, the overall structure of the case report is presented, together with the rhetorical functions and lexico-grammatical features typical for each section of the report. |
