Özet
Abdominal aortic aneurysm is a condition that the size of the aorta increased more than 1.5 times in normal size. The most clinical symptom is abdominal pulsatile mass, abdominal pain and back pain. Rupture is a major and life-threatening complication. Endovas-cular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is the most preferred minimally invasive technique for treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms in recent years. Type III endoleak is a rare and mortal complication of EVAR. Persistent hiccup related to EVAR complication is very rare. We couldn’t find similar case in the literature. We present a 72-year-old male pa-tient-with history of EVAR 5 years ago-who applied to the hospital with persistent hiccups for 15 days and was diagnosed with Type III endoleak. The aim of this report is to highlight this rare interesting and life-threatening clinical condition of EVAR complication, presenting with persistent hiccups. © 2023 by Türkiye Klinikleri.
