Multiple cerebral infarctions associated with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.
    Neurology, 1999, Jul-13, Volume: 53, Issue:1

    A 26-year-old woman on human menopausal gonadotrophin-human chorionic gonadotrophin therapy for sterility showed multiple cerebral infarctions associated with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. A hypercoagulable state (hemoconcentration, increased plasma levels of D-dimer and thrombin-antithrombin III complex, and decreased protein S activity) was associated with her thromboembolic events. Cerebral infarction associated with mild neurologic deficits may be overlooked in patients with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.

Acute cerebrovascular accidents with severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.
    Human reproduction (Oxford, England), 1998, Volume: 13, Issue:7

    Cerebrovascular complications are by far the most serious side-effects of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. We report a case in which the patient developed cerebral infarction with right sided hemiplegia as a result of severe hyperstimulation syndrome after using a gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist for intracytoplasmic sperm injection.
