- amelius 3y agoYes. It is normal and they're called medical case reports. See: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5686928/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5686928/ > A case report is a detailed report of the symptoms, signs, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of an individual patient. Case reports usually describe an unusual or novel occurrence and as such, remain one of the cornerstones of medical progress and provide many new ideas in medicine.
