Female infertility treated by ovarian stimulation can lead to arterial thrombosis particularly when ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome emerges. Myocardial infarction have been reported thrice, in one case even before artificial ovulation induction. A 25-year-old female with primary infertility underwent ovarian stimulation and eight days after ovulation induction and intra-uterine insemination suffered from a troponin positive non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction of the inferior wall. Coronary angiogram was normal and contrast-enhanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging confirmed the subendocardial inferior infarct. This protocol included sole triptorelin administration followed by 23 recombinant follicle stimulating hormone injections and concluded by recombinant choriogonadotrophin. There was no ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. Large biological screening did not retrieve any predisposition for arterial thrombosis. Clinical outcome was excellent. Despite weak causal link, we emphasize that chest pain during ovarian stimulation protocol should rise clinical concern for acute coronary syndrome. |
