Thoracic endometriosis syndrome is a well-described, rare manifestation of endometriosis. We present a case of a 35-year old woman undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation prior to in vitro fertilization (IVF) who developed bilateral hemorrhagic pleural effusions. She was initially diagnosed with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, a complication of infertility therapy; however, she was later found to have occult thoracic endometriosis. We describe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and review the manifestations of thoracic endometriosis syndrome. Although endometriosis is a hormone-dependent disease, the rate of IVF complications related to endometriosis is low.
胸腔子宫内膜异位症综合征是一种描述明确的、罕见的子宫内膜异位症表现。我们报告了一例 35 岁女性，在接受体外受精（IVF）前进行控制性卵巢刺激，发展为双侧血性胸腔积液。她最初被诊断为卵巢过度刺激综合征，这是不孕治疗的一种并发症；然而，后来发现她患有隐匿性胸腔子宫内膜异位症。我们描述了卵巢过度刺激综合征，并回顾了胸腔子宫内膜异位症综合征的表现。尽管子宫内膜异位症是一种激素依赖性疾病，但与子宫内膜异位症相关的 IVF 并发症发生率较低。
