angina

From Latin angina (“quinsy; strangling, choking”), from angere (“to press together, to choke, to hurt (cause pain)”).

• IPA^(key): /ˈæn.dʒɪ.nə/, /ænˈdʒaɪ.nə/[1]
• Rhymes: -aɪnə

angina (countable and uncountable, plural anginas)

1. (pathology) An inflammatory infection of the throat, particularly quinsy.
2. (pathology) Short for angina pectoris.
3. (pathology, cardiology) A chest pain or shortness of breath occurring with lesser degrees of arterial blockage.

Although the use of angina as a shorthand for angina pectoris is common and accepted by most dictionaries,[1] it may be considered imprecise or improper by some medical practitioners.
