Abstract
The laryngeal mask airway (LMA) has gained popularity as an airway management device in the perioperative setting due to its ease of use, reduced invasiveness compared to endotracheal intubation, and lower incidence of complications. However, hiccups, though relatively uncommon, can pose a significant challenge during the perioperative period when an LMA is in place. Abrupt movement because of hiccups can lead to delay in surgery as well as interfere with surgical instrumentation. This discussion presents a case where perioperative hiccups occurred with LMA use and explores the management strategies employed.
