Help deciphering certificates

[Elliebean54]

Hello all I’m having problems deciphering a couple of death certificates I’d really appreciate some help with, both relating to cause of death.

The first one the primary cause is given as endocarditis if the mitral valve, but then it seems to have a secondary bit after the number 2 months then some letters and I can’t make sense of whether it’s to do with the length of time she was sick or an abbreviation related to a secondary cause of death?

The second one I’m struggling with 2 words. I read it as “___ enteritis Tuberculosis of ___ renal”

The last query is more related to a hospital abbreviation but I wasn’t sure where to put it. It’s either V.W or U.W. and is recorded as a reason for admission to a naval hospital in 1914. I’m guessing it might be STD related bearing in mind said ancestor ultimately died of tertiary syphilis years later and had a pretty wild reputation to say the least, but it would be good to know for sure what it means.

Thank you for your time

The second line in the first one says, No PM...Post Mortem. the second says Supra-Renal I think.

No 2:
Catarrhal
    enteritis
Tuberculosis of
    supra-renal

The first one says “Endocarditis of mitral valve 2 months”.

[Jamjar]

No 2:
Catarrhal
    enteritis
Tuberculosis of
    supra-renal

It’s correct and an Internet search will provide some interesting reading on the conditions.

Also, agree with no pm = no post-mortem.

Thank you

That’s quite brutal I can only think he must have had some underlying condition that interfered with his ability to eat or digest his food. He was 18months old 1890s but although they were fairly poor they weren’t in abject poverty and he had 4 healthy siblings alive at this time who weren’t starved as kids or have to spend time in the workhouse like quite a few of my ancestors did. Poor mite
