摘要
Hiccup is a spasmodic, involuntary contraction of the inspiratory muscles, associated with delayed, abrupt glottic closure, causing a peculiar sound. There are numerous causes of hiccup, including diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. Hiccup is reported to represent an atypical manifestation of the gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). We report two patients diagnosed GERD presented to us with persistent hiccups as an unusual presenting complaint. Endoscopic examinations showed esophagitis, two case of Los Angeles class grade B and A respectively, whose hiccups were improved by proton pump inhibitors (PPI). Hiccup is atypical symptom of GERD. If hiccup is due to GERD, then it may be improved with proton pump inhibitor therapy.
