Abstract

Abstract An example of both mitral stenosis and bilateral coronary occlusion has not been found in the literature. The case reported here, presenting a tight mitral stenosis and an occlusion of all the main coronary arteries, furnishes an interesting example of the remarkable potentialities of the various compensatory mechanisms of the heart and its blood supply. REPORT OF CASE S. B., a white man, aged 63, a tailor, was admitted to the Brooklyn Jewish Hospital in the general medical service of Dr. Joseph Rosenthal, complaining of generalized weakness, dyspnea on exertion, and edema of the ankles.Three years before, he had an attack of pain over the precordium and shortness of breath. He was taken to a hospital, where he stayed three weeks. Since then he had remained quite well and was able to go to work daily. Slight dyspnea on exertion was the only symptom that persisted.
