| Abstrakt: | Among many clinical symptoms, hiccups are an infrequent presentation of hyponatremia. Hyponatremia indicates a serum sodium level of less than 135 mmol/l, the most common reported electrolyte abnormality. Cerebral salt wasting syndrome is a less common cause of hyponatremia, which can arise from a spectrum of brain pathology. This case report brings attention to a case of hyponatremia due to cerebral salt wasting syndrome in a 76-year-old man who suffered from an ischemic stroke. The hyponatremia appeared vaguely, with only a hiccup as a symptom. Competing Interests: The authors have declared that no competing interests exist. (Copyright © 2022, Saha et al.) |
