Abstract

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is an iatrogenic and potentially lethal complication of ovulation induction characterized by massive ovarian enlargement and extravasation of fluid into the third compartment. Pleural effusion, ascites, dyspnea, hemoconcentration, decreased renal perfusion, and coagulation abnormalities can be en¬countered in severe OHSS, which might even lead to mortality. We present a woman with pleural effusion despite minimal ascites following ovulation induction treatment for infertility of 3 years' duration. Supportive measures are usually sufficient for the treatment of OHSS. In case of pleural effusion, repetitive thoracosenteses might be effective and safe.

Özet

Ovaryan hiperstimülasyon sendromu (OHSS) overlerin masif büyümesi ve .üçüncü boşluklara sıvı geçmesi ile oluşan bir patoloji olup, ovülasyon indüksiyonunun önemli ve ölümcül sayılabilen iatrojenik bir komplikasyonudur. Ağır formunda asit, plevral effüzyon, dispne, hemokonsantrasyon, azalmış renal perfüzyon, koagülasyon anomalileri izlenebilir ve bu form ölümcül seyredebilir. Biz kliniğimizde üç yıllık infertilite nedeniyle ovülasyon indüksiyonu yapılan ve gebelik oluşan bir hastada, minimal asit olmasına rağmen gelişen plevral effüzyonu ve yapılan tedavisini sunduk. OHSS’da destekleyici tedavi yeterli olmakla beraber, kişinin kliniğini bozacak derecede gelişen plevral effüzyonlarda tekrarlayan torakosentezler hem etkin, hem de güvenilirdir.
