Superovulation therapy with in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment may result in ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and a hypercoaguable state. The site of thrombus formation is commonly in the upper venous extremities. One case of bilateral internal jugular vein thrombosis following ovarian hyperstimulation is described. The clinical presentation, investigations and management are discussed.

Thrombosis of the jugular vein is a rare complication during pregnancy. In most cases the thrombogenic factor was ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome occurred during the process of assisted reproductive technology or inherited or acquired thrombophilia. Authors report a case of jugular vein thrombosis occurred after in vitro fertilization. On the basis of the literature thromboprophylaxis should be indicated for patients who develop ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, and also be considered for women with inherited or acquired thrombophilia, while undergoing assisted reproductive techniques.
