Why the study?
Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome can cause hypercoagulability, but acute myocardial infarction and cardiac thrombosis have been rarely reported complications.
Acute myocardial infarction and cardiac thrombosis are rare but serious complications of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.

Alerts clinicians to rare cardiac thrombosis in OHSS; systematic review leaves incidence and management open.
Background: Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a rare but serious complication of ovarian stimulation occurring during assisted reproduction technologies (ART). It is characterized by increased vascular permeability and hypercoagulable states resulting in strokes and peripheral ischemia. Acute myocardial infarction and cardiac thrombosis, however, have been rarely reported complications of OHSS.
