Abstract
Ovarian hyperestimulation syndrome is one of the most serious iatrogenic complications of assisted reproductive techniques. This syndrome is mediated by the release of vasoactive factors from the cells of ovarian follicles developed through controlled ovarian stimulation, and it is mainly characterized by the increase in ovarian size along with a shift of fluid and proteins from the intravascular space into a third space. The diagnosis is mainly clinical, supported by pelvic ultrasound, and the management depends on its severity. It is possible to identify patients at risk, and preventive strategies should be applied prior, during and after the implementation of assisted reproductive techniques to lower the risk of developing this complication.
