Cardio-oncology is a specialized field that addresses the complex interplay between cardiac issues and cancer treatment outcomes. As treatment modalities evolve, unique case reports emerge, providing invaluable insights into unexpected diagnoses, treatment responses, and patient management strategies. These reports are crucial for understanding rare occurrences, atypical manifestations of common conditions, and the efficacy of novel or off-label treatments. By documenting and analyzing these cases, researchers and clinicians can refine their approaches and enhance patient care.
This Research Topic aims to compile a comprehensive collection of case reports within the field of cardio-oncology, showcasing unique and significant clinical encounters that advance our understanding of this complex inter-discipline. The goal is to highlight cases that either feature rare conditions with typical characteristics, common conditions that exhibit atypical symptoms, or demonstrate compelling responses to new therapeutic interventions. Each submission will be meticulously assessed by a Senior Associate Editor to ensure high relevance and impact before undergoing peer review.
To maintain focus and clarity in our collection, we are setting specific parameters around the discussion themes and case eligibility:
-Rare cases with typical features
-Frequent cases with atypical features
-Positive responses to innovative treatment approaches
Submissions should follow our structured format, including detailed case descriptions, diagnostic and therapeutic strategies, and a critical discussion of the case within the context of the existing medical literature. Accepted case reports must not exceed 3000 words and should contain:
-An instructive title specific to the case focus
-A succinct abstract
-A detailed introduction, case description, and discussion as per our outlined guidelines
-Relevant visual aids such as timelines of care Each report must be accompanied by patient consent for publication and adhere strictly to the CARE guidelines for case reports.
Appendix: Article Format and Submission Requirements
-Articles must adhere to a structured format including specific content sections and a maximum word limit.
-Written informed consent is mandatory for publication.
-Only original case reports that significantly advance the field of cardio-oncology will be considered for review.
