Doctors unknowingly publish case reports on the same giant lipoma in the same journal
Cureus retracted the second paper after it discovered the error.
In a bizarre case report on the industry of case reports, a well-known journal has published two studies on the same patient just two months apart.
The open-access journal Cureus, which is owned by Springer Nature, published ‘Giant lipoma: a case report’ by two doctors from Datta Meghe Institute of Medical Sciences in central India on 26 January this year.
