Ethical considerations are crucial in pediatric case reports. Here are some key points to keep in mind:
Informed Consent: Obtain written consent from the parents or guardians of the child patient. If the child is old enough to understand, assent should also be sought. Anonymity: Ensure that the patientâs identity is protected by omitting or altering identifiable information. IRB Approval: Some institutions may require Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval before publishing case reports.
