Diseases of the heart and arterial system : designed to be a practical presentation of the subject for the use of students and practitioners of medicine . AORTIC REGURGITATION .,:, only in the fourth left interspace, close to the breastbone. It: isgenerally most distinct in the erecl position or when the heartsaction is excited. Neverthe-less I have certainly observedcases in which the murmur be-came more distinct and easilyrecognised when the patientwas recumbent. This murmuris transmitted downward to-wards the ensiform appendix,and in some instances alsotowards the left, even as faras the apex. When audible,with more than usual inten-sity at the apex, the murmuris thought by some to indicateincompetence of the left pos-terior flap. As previously remarkedwith reference to the mitralregurgitant murmur, the intensity and the extent of conduction ofthis aortic diastolic murmur furnish no criterion of the gravity of.
