An abnormality diagnosis apparatus of an internal combustion engine is provided which is capable of improving reliability in abnormality determination as well as making abnormality determination at high frequencies. The abnormality diagnosis apparatus includes an oxygen sensor for detecting a concentration of oxygen in exhaust gases of an internal combustion engine, an injector for injecting fuel into the internal combustion engine, a feedback control element for driving the injector according to the concentration of oxygen to control an amount of fuel supplied to the internal combustion engine in a feedback manner, a forced fuel correction element for correcting an amount of fuel controlled by the feedback control element in a forced manner, and an abnormality determination element for determining the presence or absence of abnormality in the injector. The abnormality determination element determines the presence or absence of abnormality in the injector based on the concentration of oxygen detected by the oxygen sensor in the course of a forced fuel correction control operation carried out by the forced fuel correction element.
