title: [Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome as a cause of pleural effusion].
abstract: In recent years many assisted reproduction units are using the ovaric induction technique as fertilization procedure. The ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome is scarcely frequent, but a potentially serious complication of this technique. Is characterized by a situation of not clearly explained hypovolemia, and increased liquid amount in serosae. Development and diffusion of assisted reproduction procedures makes the consideration of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome as a possible cause for pleural effusion.
