This article is about chest pain due to oxygen shortage in the heart. For other uses of the term angina such as abdominal angina, Ludwig's angina, Prinzmetal's angina, Vincent's angina, or angina tonsillaris, click here.
Angina pectoris, commonly known as angina, is chest pain due to ischemia (a lack of blood and hence oxygen supply) of the heart muscle, generally due to obstruction or spasm of the coronary arteries (the heart's blood vessels). Coronary artery disease, the main cause of angina, is due to atherosclerosis of the cardiac arteries. The term derives from the Greek ankhon ("strangling") and the Latin pectus ("chest"), and can therefore be translated as "a strangling feeling in the chest".
