摘要

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a recognized complication in patients receiving ovarian stimulation drugs for fertility treatment. However, rare cases of OHSS were reported with spontaneous pregnancy. Our case was a 19-year-old female (Gravida 1 Para 0) presenting to our hospital’s emergency room with severe abdominal pain, distension and dyspnea with a βhCGl evel = 54.000 IU/L, 2 days after undergoing dilatation and evacuation (D&E) of a partial vesicular mole. Her ultrasound prior to the D&E revealed a single viable fetus, abdominal collection and enlarged ovaries with bilateral theca lutein cysts. Conservative management with close follow-up was initiated with gradual improvement in clinical, radiological and lab findings. OHSS represents a rare complication of molar pregnancy, which can exacerbate following evacuation. Clinicians should maintain awareness of this potential occurrence to facilitate timely appropriate management.
