Abstract 134: Thrombotic Complications of Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome

Stroke Journal

Introduction:Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a well-known complication of ovarian stimulation used during assisted reproductive technology cycles. In severe OHSS, increases in capillary permeability can result in hemoconcentration and hypercoagulability leading to thrombotic events, including stroke and cerebral venous thrombosis.

Epidemiology, Pathophysiology, and Imaging of Atherosclerotic Intracranial Disease

Stroke Journal

The mechanisms by which ICAD causes stroke include plaque rupture with in situ thrombosis and occlusion or artery-to-artery embolization, hemodynamic injury, and branch occlusive disease. In fact, the 1-year recurrent stroke rate of >20% among those with stenosis >70% is one of the highest rates among common causes of stroke.
