Thieves Market

Thieves’ Market presentations are a tradition within rheumatology where a unique case is presented and the audience is challenged either with diagnosis or management of a complicated patient. The goal is to help us all in our ongoing journey to become discerning diagnosticians and thoughtful practitioners. 


A successful Thieves’ Market case submission to the VSR will be:

- A real case with high educational value and a teaching point, including but not limited to:

o Patient with a rare disease

o Patient with a common disease but a rare presentation 

o Patient with a rare complication

o A patient from whom we can all learn something

- A well-rehearsed “polished” presentation

- Stimulating and engaging to the audience


The winner will receive a certificate along with monetary prizes of $400 for first place, $200 for second place and $100 for third place. The first place winner will also receive one free night at the hotel for the VSR 2024 meeting. In addition, the presentation will be highlighted on the VSR website as this year’s winner.


Requirements:

- Only trainees (medical students, residents, fellows) are eligible for submission

o All trainees must have a faculty mentor

o To encourage participation of multiple levels of training, it is allowable to have multiple authors

Cases must be submitted by 5 PM on August 1st, 2023
