ABSTRACT
Clinical profile of rheumatic fever (RF) in 100 hospitalised children of Bangladesh were studied. Peak age period of the incidence of the disease was found in the age group of 11-12 years (34 percent) and majority (83.5 percent) of the cases belonged to the middle and poor classes. There was slight preponderance of the male. Carditis was the commonest (64 percent) manifestation followed by poly-arthritis (51 percent). Chorea was present in 6 percent and subcutaneous nodules were in 7 percent cases. Erythema marginatum (EM) was conspicuous by its absence. Amongst the rheumatic heart diseases (RHD), mitral stenosis (MS) and mitral incompetence (MI) comprised the highest (35 percent) incidence and next to it was the MS (13 percent) and MI (9 percent).
