Symptomatic unilateral pleural effusion as a presentation of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome

N Wood, L Edozien and B Lieberman
St Mary's Hospital for Women and Children, Manchester, UK.

Isolated acute unilateral pleural effusion has twice been reported as the only symptom of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (Kingsland et al, 1989; Jewelewicz and Vande Wiele, 1975). The pathogenesis of this disorder is not fully understood and the presence of an isolated pleural effusion lends support to the role of systemic factors rather than purely the transudation of fluid from grossly enlarged ovaries in the progression of this disease. This article describes a second case of an isolated pleural effusion following in-vitro fertilization and embryo transfer.
