Vadim Erkŏhśŭn (Вадім Еркŏґшўн, born ca. 1915, died 17 July 1984) was the second chairman of the presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Adzhatian A.S.S.R. from 1982 until his death in 1984.

Erkŏhśŭn was appointed by Moscow to replace the far more popular Miheĺ Iĺicśŭn. Unknown, grey and grumpy, Erkŏhśŭn didn't manage to develop himself into a charismatic leader and he was often at odds with his ministers and other prominent politicians in Adzhatia. Although he was near 70 years old already and not particularly healthy, his death in July 1984 came as a surprise nevertheless and foul play has always been suspected.
