Nephrotic sydrome developing in severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.

We report a case that developed nephrotic syndrome during hospitalization for severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome without history of acute renal failure. During hospi- talization, she developed persistent ascites and respiratory distress. The 24 hours urine protein analysis revealed significant proteinuria and renal biopsy showed global and seg- mental sclerosis in glomeruli, mesangial arteritis, proliferations in visceral epithelial cells (IgA nephropathy). To the best of our knowledge, such a complication will be presented for the first time in the literature.
