The Application Value of Ultrasound in Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome and Literature Review.

Abstract

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a common complication of assisted reproductive technology, caused by the excessive response of the ovaries to gonadotropins during the ovulation induction process. The clinical manifestations of OHSS include abdominal distension, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, etc In severe cases, it can lead to life-threatening symptoms such as ovarian rupture, ascites, and pleural effusion. Ultrasound examination, as an important auxiliary diagnostic tool, can help doctors monitor the size of the ovaries, the number and morphology of follicles, and predict and diagnose the occurrence of OHSS. In terms of treatment, ultrasound-guided puncture and fluid drainage is an effective method to alleviate the symptoms of OHSS. This article reviews the application of ultrasound technology in the prediction, diagnosis, and treatment of OHSS, aiming to provide a more accurate and effective diagnostic and treatment strategy for clinical practice. Through in-depth research, it will help doctors better understand the pathophysiology of OHSS, formulate personalized treatment plans, improve treatment outcomes, and reduce the pain and economic burden on patients.
