Abstract
The frequency and importance of valvular heart disease in old age are now well recognized. Since the problems of pathology and surgical treatment are dealt with elsewhere in this volume, this account will concentrate on clinical features, diagnosis, and natural history. It is appropriate to consider disorders of each valve separately.
