Unilateral Isolated Pleural Effusion in Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome

Abstract

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is an iatrogenic complication with symptoms ranging from mild to severe. Pleural effusion occurs in severe forms of OHSS; however, isolated pleural effusion is rare. Here, we report a case of OHSS with isolated pleural effusion at presentation and discuss OHSS in light of the literature.
