Introduction: Goshuyuto was effective in a case with intractable hiccups caused by the medulla oblongata dissemination of the cerebellum melanoma. Case:A 54-yearold male patient was diagnosed cerebellum malignant melanoma. He suffered from intractable hiccups caused by the medulla oblongata dissemination lesion of this melanoma. He was treated with some Western medicines such as Baclofen, Metoclopramide, Chlorpromazine and Clonazepam, which are usually used for the treatment of hiccups, but they were not effective. Therefore we gave him Goshuyuto which is Kampo medicine and his hiccups subsided immediately. Since then, he continues taking Gosyuyuto about a year and there has been no recurrence of hiccups thus far. Conclusion: Taking of Kampo medicine is the useful choice for a patient whom Western medicine is ineffective.
