Fifty-five patients with anginoid pain were studied medically and psychologically. Twenty had angina pectoris, twenty had angina innocens, and the remaining 15 did not fulfill the criteria for either. The somatic and psychological features characteristic of each group are described. The heterogeneous factors which may combine to produce anginoid pain are discussed, and the importance of a comprehensive approach to the patient is emphasized.
