Scope note: Síndrome compuesto por la combinación de aumento de volumen de los ovarios y por salida aguda de líquido del espacio intravascular. El aumento de volumen del ovario se origina por la formación de quistes ováricos y el cambio de líquido puede producir ascitis, hidrotórax o edema generalizado. El síndrome suele presentarse como complicación de la inducción de la ovulación en el tratamiento de la infertilidad.

Scope note: A complication of OVULATION INDUCTION in infertility treatment. It is graded by the severity of symptoms which include OVARY enlargement, multiple OVARIAN FOLLICLES; OVARIAN CYSTS; ASCITES; and generalized EDEMA. The full-blown syndrome may lead to RENAL FAILURE, respiratory distress, and even DEATH. Increased capillary permeability is caused by the vasoactive substances, such as VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTORS, secreted by the overly-stimulated OVARIES.
