Spontaneous Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome in a Triplet Pregnancy

الملخص EN

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a potentially life-threatening complication, usually iatrogenic after ovulation induction.

OHSS is a very rare event in spontaneously conceived pregnancies.

Only few cases have been reported in literature to the best of our knowledge.

We report a very rare case of spontaneous critical OHSS (according to classification of severity of OHSS as mentioned in Greentop guidelines no.

5, 2006) associated with triplet pregnancy in a 26-year-old woman suffering from severe abdominal pain, distension, and dyspnea.

Our case highlights the importance of a strong suspicion for OHSS when a clinical presentation could not be explained by common medical conditions.
