It is a well established fact that congenital cardiac defects act as a predisposing factor in the occurrence of infectious heart disease. Cardiac anomalies, especially those of the non-cyanotic group, such as defects in the interventricular septum, bicuspid semilunar valves, and patent ductus arteriosus are commonly the site of infective processes. In a series of 656 cardiac anomalies collected by Abbott the total incidence of inflammatory heart disease was 129 cases, or 19.6 per cent, of which 96 cases were in the non-cyanotic group and...References Case No. I Case No. II(1) KRZYSZKOWSKI J: Aneurysma des Stammes der Pulmonalarterie und Multiple Aneurysmen ihrer Verastelungen bei Persistenz des Ductus Botalli, Wein klin Wchenschr, 4:92, 1902.
