[Familial occurrence of acquired heart valve defect].

A report is given on a family examination, issuing from 213 persons with an acquired valvular defect for the establishment of further cases on altogether 783 relations of the direct line. In 19 families other 21 patients with an acquired valvular defect were found; this corresponds to a share of 2.7 % of the relations examined and 8.1% of the families affected, respectively. The result repays the expenditure and, apart from this, leads to an essential furthering of the confidence between physician, patient and family as the smallest social unity for prophylaxis, diagnostics, therapy and metaphylaxis of chronic diseases.
