A 54-year-old woman with severe abdominal pain and diarrhea presents to an emergency unit, then lands in an intensive care unit, undergoing various tests. Physicians do everything to diagnose her conditions until all strategies are exhausted. What to do when you are stuck? Who can provide the answer? Could it be the patient herself? Listen to the winning Best Case Report Contest presentation by Dr Babeta Čápková from the Department of Internal Medicine in the Tomas Bata Regional Hospital in Zlín, Czech Republic.
