Ovarian hyper stimulation syndrome is a complication of stimulating ovulation treatments in the context of assisted procreation. The manifestations of this syndrome are then classified in 5 states with possible severe complications: hypo-volumic shock, acute renal failure, respiratory distress, disruption of liver functions, venous or venous thromboembolic events, exceptionally until death we report a case of a patient with ovarian hyper stimulation syndrome in a setting of assisted medical procreation. A 31years old woman who received ovarian stimulation, 12 days after the IVF, she was admitted in Emergency Department with severe abdominal pain, ascite, pleural effusion and dyspnea. Beside the medical treatment, the patient had a puncture of ascites and a pleural puncture showing a fluid exudative type whose cytology is benign. Ovarian hyper stimulation syndrome is a serious complication in the context of assisted medical procreation. Manifestations of OHSS may be local or general and may even be life-threatening. Hence the interest of the good recognition of risk factors for OHSS with monitoring of ovarian stimulation in the context of IVF with doses adapted to the patients, the prevention and the monitoring and the therapeutic management well adapted to each stage of OHSS disease.
