Abstract
Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a feared complication of controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) and can be associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Risk factors for OHSS include a history of OHSS, young age, low body mass index (BMI), polycystic ovary syndrome, elevated serum levels of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), large number of recruited follicles, elevated serum levels of estradiol, and higher gonadotropin doses during COS. However, OHSS may develop in patients with minimal risk factors. We present the case of a patient with minimal risk factors who developed severe late-onset OHSS in early pregnancy with liver dysfunction requiring hospitalization. After hospital discharge, her pregnancy resulted in a term live birth. We recommend that clinicians include OHSS in the differential diagnosis of elevated levels of liver enzymes in early pregnancy.
