| Summary | "Cases of Organic Diseases of the Heart" by John Collins Warren is a scientific publication written in the early 19th century. The work presents detailed case studies centered on various organic diseases affecting the heart, accompanied by dissections that aim to identify the distinctive symptoms associated with these conditions. The book meticulously documents multiple cases of patients suffering from heart diseases, detailing their clinical presentations, symptom progressions, and the outcomes of dissections performed post-mortem. Each case outlines specific symptoms such as palpitations, difficulty in breathing, and dropsy, highlighting how these can be mistaken for other conditions like asthma or hydrothorax. Warren's examination of the anatomical changes in the heart, such as valve ossification and thickening, offers valuable insights into the underlying causes of the symptoms, ultimately suggesting that while treatment may alleviate some symptoms, many cases of organic heart disease were beyond the reach of medical intervention at the time.
