Background: Diabetes is one of the risk factor for coronary disease. Patient with diabetes have a increased prevalence and incidence of coronary vessels disease compare with the people without diabetes in the general population.

Aim and objectives: To compare the study of angiographic coronary results in the patient with and without diabetes.

Materials and methods: 172 pacients; 66 with diabetes and 106 without diabetes was admitted to our hospital. In a retrospective study we evaluated the results of coronary angiography examination. The examination was performed to the patients with acute coronary syndrome or in patients with positive cardiac stress test.

Results: 38% (66) of the patients was with diabetes or prediabetes compare with 62% (106), without diabetes. In diabetes patients: 74% (49) males and 26% (17) females. Average ages in diabetes patients was 63.1±9 years old and average HbA1c values was 7.8±1.5%. Angiography results in patients with diabetes: 42.5% (28) with triple multi vessel; 24.5% (16) two vessel; 21% (14) one vessel and 12% (8) without significant stenosis. Angiography results in patient without diabetes: 23% (24) triple multi vessel; 18% (20) two vessel; 26% (28) one vessel and 25% (26) without significant stenosis.

Conclusions: The incidence of multi vessel coronary artery disease was higher in diabetes patients compare to non diabetes patient. The majority cases in patients with diabetes have two or three vessel coronary artery disease.
