Prediction of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. Challenging the estradiol mythos.
Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a serious and potentially life-threatening complication of ovulation induction. The syndrome almost always presents either after hCG administration in susceptible patients or during early pregnancy. Despite many years of clinical experience, the pathophysiology is poorly understood and there is no reliable test to predict patients who will subsequentl...
متن کاملPrediction of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). Estradiol level has an important role in the prediction of OHSS.
The cascade of events that leads to the development of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is almost always accompanied by elevated estradiol (E(2)) levels. The role of estrogen level in OHSS has not been confirmed; however, it was shown repeatedly in the literature that elevated levels of E(2) constitute a risk for OHSS. Monitoring E(2) was found to be effective in reducing the incidence ...
متن کاملRole of serum miRNAs in the prediction of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome in polycystic ovarian syndrome patients.
BACKGROUND Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) causes a significantly increased risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). Here, we focused on the altered expression of serum miRNAs and their predictive value for OHSS in PCOS patients. METHODS We used the TaqMan low density array followed by individual quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction to identify and validate...
متن کاملSpontaneous ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.
Spontaneous forms of the ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (sOHSS) are nearly always reported between 8 and 14 weeks of pregnancy and also with follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) producing pituitary adenoma. The syndrome has been previously reported in rare instances of increased production of human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) such as multiple pregnancies, hydatiforme mole, polycystic ovary d...
متن کاملOvarian hyperstimulation syndrome.
Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is an iatrogenic complication that is associated with modern techniques for in vitro fertilization. Extensive efforts have been made to understand the pathophysiology and to improve the management of this entity. The severe and life-threatening forms of the ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome are still challenging for critical care physicians. This article...
