[Systolic prolapse ("ballooning") of the mitral valves with secondary atrial septal defect: a still not much known combination].

Two case with the combination of a ballooning mitral valve and a secundum type ASD are described. The possibility of correct identification of the two anomalies by using relatively simple noninvasive methods is emphasized. Furthermore, a short review of the etiology of the clinical "mid systolic click/late systolic murmur" syndrome is given and the evidence for and against the existence of a true congenital combination of the two abovementioned defects is discussed.

Drug-induced pulmonary hypertension?

Of 40 patients with obstructive pulmonary hypertension studied in Basle, Switzerland, during the period 1966-68, 32 had been taking an anorectic drug, aminorex fumarate. Rapidly progressing exertional dyspnoea, central chest pain, and syncope on effort were characteristic features. The absence of the usual causes of pulmonary vascular disease seems to suggest the possibility of drug-induced pulmonary hypertension. Further studies are necessary, however, to clarify the role of aminorex fumarate in this condition.
