Abstract

Background

Thromboembolism is a rare but extremely serious complication of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.

Case report

We report a case of left internal jugular vein thrombosis, presenting as a late complication of moderate ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.

Conclusion

Prevention of vascular thrombosis should be a part of the treatment in the setting of assisted reproductive procedures complicated with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.
