Abstract
Central venous cannulation is a common procedure for acute hemodialysis. Hiccups are a rare complication of internal jugular venous catheterization. In this case, hiccups appeared after the vena jugularis interna catheterization for acute hemodialysis in a patient with acute renal failure and was treated with the reposition of the catheter.
