Persistent ascites resolving with gonadotropin-releasing-hormone-agonist 18 months after hospitalization for severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a life- threatening complication of controlled ovarian stimulation. One of the main symptoms of OHSS is ascites.

Treatment is symptomatic with resolution of the symptoms over days to weeks. We report a case of severe OHSS with persistent ascites 18 months after the diagnosis.
