    <abstract contentType="purpose">Echocardiography-based study on the development of valvular disease (decrease, stable, increase) in patients treated with benfluorex. To compare the development of valvular diseases potentially linked to benfluorex and diseases not linked to benfluorex. - All patients and patients with valvular disease potentially linked to benfluorex; assessment of development with regards to: - Indication(s), duration of exposure to benfluorex and duration since stopping medication. - Age and sex; - diabetes and associated medical treatment. - Presence of cardiac and non-cardiac diseases; - current treatments and treatments that were undergone simultaneously with benfluorex.</abstract>
