From £0.05 / word (GBP) on the approved medical editing line. Guide “from” prices are in GBP. Your final written quote depends on length, field and turnaround. Journal APCs (if any) are paid by you to the publisher and are not included in our fee. We do not guarantee acceptance or indexing. Free how-to sibling: how to publish a case report. Not a substitute for medical manuscript editing on full research articles.

Authors searching “how to publish a case report” need education first — that lives on publish a case report. Authors who already have a draft and need line-level and structural editing land here. We cross-link both so neither page tries to rank for the other’s intent.
Case reports fail when consent is unclear or identifiers remain. We edit the statements you supply and flag missing elements using patterns from ethics approval & consent statements. We will not invent consent that was not obtained.
Some case-report venues are legitimate; others are predatory. Shortlist carefully with journal selection, open access journal selection and predatory journals. Verify indexes via indexing checks. PubMed-oriented context: PubMed indexed journals. No acceptance or indexing guarantees.
Broader clinical manuscripts: medical manuscript editing and nursing manuscript editing. Trials and reviews: clinical trial guide, systematic review guide. Submission packaging: submission support, cover letter editing.
If the case is complete but English is unclear, combine with academic English editing. If the narrative is thesis-shaped, manuscript restructuring or developmental editing may come first. Similarity from prior thesis chapters: similarity report editing ethically only.
Reviewer requests for more clinical detail or better figures are common. Revise with reviewer response letter editing and major revisions response. If rejected, resubmit after rejection before recycling the same draft.
A submitable case report usually has a focused title, an abstract that states why the case matters without overselling rarity, a clear timeline, enough clinical detail for a peer to learn, images that respect privacy, a discussion that cites related literature without becoming a narrative review, and complete consent/ethics declarations. Missing any of those is why drafts bounce.
We help you reach that bar on your draft. Educational context for first-time case authors remains on how to publish a case report; use that guide to decide whether a case is worth writing at all, then return here for editing. If the write-up has grown into a series or a full observational study, switch to medical manuscript editing and the appropriate reporting guideline via reporting checklist review.
Corresponding authors in the GCC, UK and elsewhere use the same remote workflow documented on UAE publication support and sibling country pages. WhatsApp assessment is fine for early triage; the written quote still confirms scope before editing starts.
Guide “from” prices are in GBP. Your final written quote depends on length, field and turnaround. Journal APCs (if any) are paid by you to the publisher and are not included in our fee. We do not guarantee acceptance or indexing. Full approved list: pricing. Packages from £450. Consultants due diligence: choose a publication consultant. Country context: GCC, UK, Jordan.
Case reports often involve trainees, consultants and imaging specialists. Agree authorship early under ICMJE-style criteria before editing begins. The corresponding author must be able to confirm consent documents if editors ask. We do not mediate authorship disputes, and we do not submit under a company identity. If your hospital requires an internal review of case reports before external submission, complete that pathway first — then send us the approved draft for language and structure editing.
When a case is rejected for “limited novelty,” decide whether to add follow-up data you already have, retarget a more specialised journal, or stop. Editing cannot manufacture rarity. Honest scoping here saves APC spend and author time — see also resubmit after rejection and open access journal selection for fee-aware shortlists.
Professional editing of the case report you wrote — structure, clinical clarity, captions and declarations — so it is clearer for journal review. You remain the author of the clinical content.
The guide at /guides/publish-case-report.html is free how-to instruction. This service applies editing to your manuscript with tracked changes and a written quote.
Medical manuscript editing from £0.05 / word (GBP) is the approved line that fits case-report editing. Guide “from” prices are in GBP. Your final written quote depends on length, field and turnaround. Journal APCs (if any) are paid by you to the publisher and are not included in our fee. We do not guarantee acceptance or indexing.
No. Ghostwriting clinical cases is refused. You draft from records you are authorised to use; we edit.
We can review CARE-oriented completeness with reporting checklist review and flag gaps. Only you confirm consent and identifiers.
No. Journals and databases decide indexing. We verify claims carefully and make no indexing promises.
Yes via journal selection and medical pathways — without quartile guarantees. Avoid predatory case-report mills.
We edit consent/ethics statements you provide for clarity and completeness cues; see the ethics guide. We cannot invent approvals.
Caption and consistency edits yes — see figure and table editing. De-identification remains your clinical responsibility.
Yes within capacity; nursing manuscript editing may also apply depending on venue and scope.
We edit your expanded draft; disclose prior abstract presentation when required.
Draft case report, target journal if known, consent/ethics status summary, and figures if any.
Send your title and abstract (or full manuscript), the index you need and your deadline. We will reply with suitable next steps and a written quote.
Pricing: custom quote based on word count, field and deadline. See how pricing works.
