卵巣過剰刺激症候群に伴う右中大脳動脈閉塞症：症例報告

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is one of the most serious complications occurring from the growing field of artificial reproductive technology. The expanding literature points to a link between OHSS and thromboembolism events. We present a case of ischemic stroke secondary to a right middle cerebral artery occlusion in a female after a fresh embryo transplant. A CT of the abdomen demonstrated significant free fluid in the abdomen, in which hemoperitoneum from an ectopic pregnancy could not be excluded. A paracentesis was completed and demonstrated clear fluid, thus supporting a presumed diagnosis of OHSS. The patient was able to get urgent endovascular clot retrieval and continues to have a progressive pregnancy at the time of publication.
