Abstract
The present paper is about the translation of cardiological terms and the difficulties faced by translators in the translating process of technical works. As a corpus to this study, we
have chosen a book on cardiology then we selected some passages from the corpus which
contain medical terms. These terms caused difficulties in transferring the meaning from the
source text to the target one. The study aims at demonstrating the importance and the difficulties of translating medical terms especially on cardiology. Understanding cardiological
terms and finding their equivalent in the target text are the main problems faced by translators. Comparative stylistics methods are the convicting techniques used in translating medical terminology in order to convey the meaning of the source language. Our paper is
entitled, “The study of cardiological terminology-related difficulties and problems in medical translation. The book " امراض القلب و شرايينه التاجية ", in English ‘ Heart diseases and its coronary
arteries’ ,written by Aymen Abu El Magd is the case study”. In our translation we have encountered difficulties caused by the differences between the two languages and the unfamiliarity with the medical terms. Trough our research study we have noticed that,
translating cardiological terms from Arabic into English and selecting a proper method is a complicated task
