Angina is common in the adult diabetic population. The symptoms of diabetic angina are commonly atypical, and often absent (silent ischaemia). Conventional anti-anginal drugs are effective in diabetic patients, but referral for angiography and consideration of percutaneous or surgical revascularisation is necessary if symptoms persist. Secondary prevention strategies are reviewed within the context of medical and surgical treatment options.

Key Words: diabetes • angina • coronary angioplasty • revascularisation.
