A Case of Hyperreactio Luteinalis / 대한주산의학회잡지

ABSTRACT

Hyperreactio luteinalis(HL)referes to moderate to marked cystic bilateral enlargement of ovaries due to benign theca lutein cysts, usually related to hydatidiform mole or choriocarcinoma. After its first description by Berger in 1938, almost 53 cases of HL unassociated with trophoblastic disease have been reported in the literature. We encountered one such case in a 34 years old female which was incidentally diagnosed during cesarean section at term.
