From 10% to 20% of patients undergoing coronary arteriography for chest pain are subsequently found to have normal coronary arteries. We investigated the prevalence of panic disorder in these patients in a two-stage study. Our results indicate that approximately one third of patients with chest pain and angiographically normal coronary arteries have panic disorder. Proper diagnosis and treatment of these patients with panic disorder may be expected to substantially reduce their psychosocial morbidity.
