Ovarian cyst aspiration: a therapeutic approach to ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.
Ultrasonographically guided transvaginal aspiration of ovarian cysts in women with severe OHSS after GIFT or IVF was safe and has resulted in immediate relief of symptoms, a shorter disease process, and outpatient treatment. The patients were allowed to go back to normal activity after the procedure. The progression of the disease was interrupted and six of seven patients carried beyond 20 weeks' gestation.
