  • Title: Hyperreactio luteinalis in a woman with high-risk factors. A case report.
    Author: Coccia ME, Pasquini L, Comparetto C, Scarselli G.
    Journal: J Reprod Med; 2003 Feb; 48(2):127-9. PubMed ID: 12621799.
    Abstract:
    BACKGROUND: Hyperreactio luteinalis is a rare condition characterized by multicystic and bilateral ovarian enlargement associated with high maternal human chorionic gonadotropin serum levels. CASE: A case of spontaneous twin pregnancy, polycystic kidney and thyrotoxicosis was treated conservatively. CONCLUSION: In this case, hyperreactio luteinalis was associated with twin pregnancy in a woman with preexisting renal failure. The association of other endocrinopathies, such as hyperthyroidism and diabetes mellitus, creates a clinical problem that could be quite hazardous in pregnancy if this association is not detected.
