Abstract:
Introduction: Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is often associated with ovulation induction therapies. However, OHSS can rarely be associated with a spontaneous ovulatory cycle, usually in the case of multiple gestations, hypothyroidism, or polycystic ovary syndrome. We present a case of OHSS following a molar pregnancy. The patient had abdominal pain, ascites, nausea, vomiting and dyspnea with 15 weeks of amenorrhea. After imaging examinations and laboratory tests, the diagnosis of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome with a molar pregnancy was established. The patient was managed in a predictable, uncomplicated manner. Although spontaneous ovarian hyperstimulation is a rare entity, it is important to be aware of it . Prompt diagnosis and successful management will likely prevent serious complications, which can develop rapidly.
