The Expert's View

Invitation for Clinical Cases

Delegates attending the Society for Endocrinology BES 2009 in Harrogate are invited to submit clinical cases for discussion in the ‘Clinical Expert’ sessions. Three interesting or controversial cases will be selected for each of the topics, which are
as follows:

Tuesday 17 March
Thyroid eye disease (clinical evaluation
and classification – EUGOGO)
P Perros (Newcastle-upon-Tyne)

Delayed puberty
J Kirk (Birmingham)

Wednesday 18 & Thursday 19 March
Turner Syndrome – how to smooth the
transition between paediatric and adult clinic
M Davies (London)

Vitamin D deficiency, diagnosis and management
Z Mughal (Manchester)

Thursday 19 March
Differential diagnosis of Cushing’s
A Grossman (London)

The tired patient
J Miell (London)

The authors of the selected cases will be asked to make a short presentation on their case, after which the expert will comment and open the discussion. The case should not be rare or exotic but, rather, should focus on practical aspects of research, clinical diagnosis and/or management. Please note cases selected will also be required to be presented in the repeat sessions.

  • The synopsis of your case should be sent in a Word document, as an attachment to an email to: conferences@endocrinology.org.
  • Your synopsis should be no more than 300 words.
  • DEADLINE FOR RECEIPT: 23 January 2009
