description Background & Objective: There has always been controversy surrounding the teaching of diagnostic and treatment measures for novel diseases and rare treatment side effects through articles. Efficient training methods are one of the effective factors in students' academic enthusiasm. The present study was conducted to investigate the impact of case study-based training on the academic enthusiasm of midwifery students. Materials & Methods: This cross-sectional interventional controlled study was conducted on 20 midwifery students of Ilam University of Medical Sciences, Ilam, Iran, over two semesters. Sampling was carried out in the form of the total population sampling method, and the samples were randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups. The intervention group underwent routine training and the review of case report articles on rare types of ectopic pregnancy, whereas the control group only received routine training. Data were collected through a demographic form and the Academic Enthusiasm Questionnaire. Data analysis was performed in SPSS21 software. Independent t-test was used for inter-group comparison and paired t-test for intra-group comparison. Results: The results of comparing inter-group and intra-group mean scores of academic enthusiasm showed no significant difference between the intervention and control groups in either phase one or phase two of the study (P<0.05). Conclusion: Case study-based teaching of ectopic pregnancy had no impact on the academic enthusiasm of midwifery students in the clinical environment. Further studies are recommended to explore how case report articles on different topics affect the academic enthusiasm of students in other medical sciences in clinical settings.
