Previous studies have shown that severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is secondary to circulatory dysfunction due to the simultaneous occurrence of increased vascular permeability and marked arteriolar vasodilation which lead to an intense homeostatic stimulation of the renin-aldosterone and sympathetic nervous systems and antidiuretic hormone (ADH). In the present report, we have in...

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a serious complication of ovulation induction that usually occurs after gonadotropin stimulation, followed by human chorionic gonadotropin administration, for infertility treatment. The existing knowledge about the pathophysiology, risk factors, and primary and secondary methods for the prevention of OHSS is reviewed in this manuscript. The clinical m...

background: ovulation induction and art may be a newly recognized cause of vascular thrombosis in unusual sites in otherwise healthy women. objective: to report a case of thrombosis in right carotid artery 2.5 months after ovarian stimulation for ivf-et. case report: a non pregnant 39-year-old woman without coagulation disorder and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (ohss). the patient underwent...

This article is a systematic review of the literature on utilization of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone antagonists (GnRH-ant) for ovarian stimulation for IVF in special patient groups. Summarized by meta-analysis are the data from randomized controlled trials (RCT) in which GnRH-agonist (GnRH-a) and GnRH-ant were compared (eight RCT for poor response, four RCT for PCOS). Also reviewed are the ...

BACKGROUND Repeated in vitro Fertilization (IVF) failure together with Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS) is one of the distressing situations leading couples to search for alternative treatment options. For such patients with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) who have experienced Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome, mild ovarian stimulation with in vitro oocyte maturation could be a promi...

Background: Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome is one of the most common complications of infertility treatment. As the fluid-filled egg follicles begin to grow within the ovary, the ovary enlarges. Sometimes, that fluid can cause fluid elsewhere in the body to shift into the abdominal cavity or the lungs. Women with PCOS are at a greater risk for developing OHSS due to the already large number ...

Abstract Study question What are the underlying mechanisms of EGCG to alleviate Ovary hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS)? Summary answer inhibited VEGF via TGF-β1 classical-SMAD pathway and 67LR-mediated CREB could reduce ovarian inflammatory effect attenuated OHSS progress in rat model. is known already Ovarian (OHSS) one most severe complications COH during IVF treatment. The pathophysiology ch...

Background: Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is an iatrogenic complication that occurs in the luteal phase of an induced hormonal cycle. The aim of this study is to assess the association of herbal regimes and OHSS. Materials and Methods: This is a clinical trial study. 110 married patients were referred to Dr. Rasekh clinic from Aug 2011 to Nov 2012. All patients had a vaginal ultrasou...

OBJECTIVE To summarize current views on the pathophysiology, risk factors, prevention, clinical features, and management of Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS). DESIGN Literature review RESULTS OHSS is a condition characterized by increased capillary permeability, and experimental evidence has identified a provocative link to pathologic vasoactive cytokine actions. Although the ultimat...
