this series gives more meaning and connection to the medical knowledge
very recommended to read during the rotation days ( not for the exams period , because they a little heavy and contain only certain topics only so they don't cover all what you need )
after every case discussion , there is a questions with explanation > very useful

Very good book to revise for pediatrics through clinical cases.
For the theory part of pediatrics it is very good but only good (not very good) to establish a good clinical sense in this specialty.
Highly recommended

Good exposure to shelf-relevant cases. Easy to do during any down time you might have since the cases are short.

Good for a review, but definitely not enough to be primary study material for the peds shelf

Decent book, but not enough for the shelf and not always the most the clear.

The peds case files book is decent, but it definitely isn't enough for the shelf exam. It definitely explains bread-and-butter peds cases adequately, but it doesn't cover everything. The clerkship director at my school recommended Nelson's Essentials of Pediatrics, which I read (I'll admit it, I wasn't too thrilled about reading an entire textbook!), and then I aced the shelf. So, anyway, case files is good to carry around on the floors and to read when you have a few minutes here or there, but you'll need another, more complete source to really learn everything you need to know.

A quick review, and handy to carry with you. Read deeper on more common and more complicated topics, do some question bank work, and you will do well on your shelf.

This book helped me prepare for my pediatrics final. It had very helpful and diverse cases that covered the common pediatric presentations that would be encountered in primary care medicine.

It's got some confusing questions but the cases were pretty good. It remains to be seen if it's going to be useful on the exam
