What is Hyperreactio Luteinalis Associated with Nonimmune Fetal Hydrops about?

A 36-year-old primigravida was managed in our unit for nonimmune fetal hydrops. The patient's fetal ultrasound at 27 weeks' gestation showed features of hydrops, including pleural effusion, ascites, and fetal scalp edema (Figure ). At 28 weeks' gestation, the patient presented with an acute onset of severe right-sided abdominal pain. Cardiotocography showed no evidence of fetal distress or contractions. A transabdominal ultrasound demonstrated bilateral enlarged multicystic ovaries (Figure ). Magnetic resonance imaging of the abdomen and pelvis excluded appendicitis; both ovaries were enlarged with stromal edema and multiple clear cysts with free fluid in the pelvis (Figure ).
