Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1997
Summary: A case of severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) prompted us to review our experience of the condition, and to critically evaluate its clinical associations and treatment. Severe OHSS complicated 1.8% of gamete intra‐Fallopian transfer (GIFT) cycles, but none of the ovulation induction and artifical insemination by husband (OI/AIH ...

Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1998
Severe or critical ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a serious complication of ovarian hyperstimulation for assisted reproduction techniques (ART). The syndrome is characterized by cystic enlargement of the ovaries and fluid shifts from the intravascular to the third space. The morbidity in OHSS is mainly determined by the hemodynamic changes

Pharmacotherapy of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome

Expert Opinion on Pharmacotherapy, 2010
One of the main objectives in assisted reproduction techiques (ART) is the maturation of multiple follicles and the recovery of multiple good quality oocytes. To realize this, it is necessary to interfere with the mechanisms of selection and follicular dominance, characteristic of spontaneous mono-ovulatory cycles, by administering gonadotrophins.

Serotonin and the ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome

European Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology and Reproductive Biology, 1983
Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome was induced in rabbit by administration of human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG) and human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG). In an attempt to establish whether serotonin plays a part in the induction of this syndrome, the hyperstimulated rabbits were divided into two groups and were administered known anti-serotonin drugs ...

Understanding Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome

Endocrine, 2005
The ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a potentially life-threatening complication of ovarian stimulation treatments. Severe forms are characterized by a massive ovarian enlargement with the formation of multiple ovarian cysts associated with extravascular fluid shifts resulting in the development of ascites, pleural and/or pericardial ...

Treatment of Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome

Seminars in Reproductive Medicine, 2010
Mild forms of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) do not require treatment. Moderate OHSS should be followed up on an outpatient basis with no specific treatment. Severe OHSS requires proper evaluation. Investigations are done to evaluate hematocrit, electrolytes, and kidney and liver function. Conservative treatment with intravenous (i.v.) fluids

The Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome

2018
The ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is an iatrogenic syndrome, which may, infrequently, become severe and evenly fatal. Until the last decade, the worldwide popularity of assisted reproductive technology (ART) and ovulation induction/controlled ovarian hyperstimulation employed in ART for either in vivo fertilization or in vitro fertilization,
