Identifying the primary diagnosis alone does not fully characterize a model's diagnosis-generation performance. We introduce CardioVascBench, a retrospective benchmark for prioritized diagnosis generation from real-world Chinese cardiovascular inpatient records. It contains 3,262 de-identified cases, with 2,174 for training and 1,088 for evaluation, linking clinical narratives and textual ECG reports to expert-verified, ordered discharge diagnoses standardized to ICD-10. An English translation of the evaluation set supports aligned cross-lingual comparison. Our evaluation protocol combines terminology normalization and rank-aware scoring to separately assess primary-diagnosis identification, reference-diagnosis coverage, and list precision. Evaluation across 36 systems shows that higher primary-diagnosis accuracy does not necessarily imply higher list precision against discharge references. We also provide CardioKG-Agent, a knowledge-enhanced baseline combining entity normalization, constrained graph retrieval, and guideline evidence. In a staged comparison of three baseline models, supervised fine-tuning plus the agent achieves a 73.5% higher mean composite score than fine-tuning alone, representing a system-level gain. These results measure retrospective agreement with recorded diagnoses; agreement between metric rankings and physician judgments remains to be validated. CardioVascBench supports research on diagnosis prioritization and knowledge-enhanced generation.
