Learning Resources – Patient-Oriented Problem Solving (POPS) Case Report Series:

POPs from the Past

‘Everything Old is New Again’

The Patient-Oriented Problem Solving (POPS) Case Report section, first introduced in
the Proceedings in 2007, is an innovative and practical learning experience for the
allergist-immunologist, the fellow in-training, all health care practitioners and students.
The section uses a format of clinical presentation, physical findings, appropriate
laboratory studies and differential diagnosis to arrive at the correct diagnosis. The case
development proceeds in a logical sequence, withholding the diagnosis until the end of
the presentation leading the reader to engage in diagnosis and patient management in a
real-world situation. Over the past 25 years, a series of 70 POPS articles have been
published. The Editors are pleased to present the entire series of articles as a “POPS
FROM THE PAST” compendium of articles commemorating a quarter century of learning
experiences for the readership.
