    ovale was patent, as well as the ductus arteriosus, but it appears probabie that the diastolic murmur was produced in the latter. No diagnosis was made during life, although (according to Kaulich) the position and character of the murmurs justified an expectation that the pulmonary valves would be found diseased. Other instances have been recorded by Schnitzler, from Oppolzer's practice (' Wien, Med. Halle,' 1864, v, 10 ; ' Schmidt's Jahrbiicher/ cxxiii, p. 44), and by Skoda; but apparently without any details that would aid in the recognition of future cases.
