Comparison of pregnancy outcome between OHSS and non-OHSS group, literature review

Studies Thrombosis rate Multiple pregnancy rate Clinical pregnancy rate Miscarriage rate Perinatal complication
Abramov et al. (1998) 2.5% 24% versus 3–5% 73.2% versus 14.4% 29.5% versus 18.0–22.0% Preterm (44% vs. 24–29%); LBW (62.1% vs. 24–36%); PIH (13.2% vs. 6.0%)
Mathur and Jenkins (2000) 36.1% versus 27.4% 12.1% versus 16.8%
Luke et al. (2010) 58–86% 98–168%↑↑ Preterm birth; LBW Stillbirth: 26–31%
Courbiere et al. (2011) 10% 2.5% versus 2.5% 17.5% versus 16% Preterm (36.0% vs. 10.7%); PIH (21.2% vs. 9.2%)
Current study 1.58% 4.0% versus 3.7% 91.8% versus 45.1% 14.9% versus 16.3% No difference

–: Data not mentioned. : Compared with non-OHSS patients, the multiple pregnancy rate of OHSS patients increased 58%–86%; the rate of perinatal complication including preterm birth, LBW and stillbirth, of OHSS patients increased 26–31%. ↑↑: Compared with non-OHSS patients, the clinical pregnancy rate of OHSS patients increased 98%–168%. PIH: Pregnancy-induced hypertention; LBW: Low birth weight; OHSS: Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.
