High renin and prorenin in plasma and pleural exudate of a patient with the ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.

We present the case of a 35-year-old woman with a severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) as a complication of ovulation induction for primary infertility. The clinical picture showed massively enlarged ovaries, pleural effusion and haemoconcentration. She needed a thoracentesis for evacuation of the large pleural effusion. High levels of renin and prorenin were observed in plasma and pleural exudate.

Angiosarcoma of the uterus following radiotherapy for squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix.

A case report of a 61-year-old woman who developed a uterine angiosarcoma 6.5 years after primary radiotherapy for a moderately well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix stage IB is presented. The diagnosis was confirmed by immunohistochemical studies showing positive staining for Ulex europaeus agglutinin 1 and supported by ultrastructural studies. Though various post-irradiation angiosarcomas are reported in the literature, this is, to our knowledge, the first report of an angiosarcoma of the uterus after radiotherapy.
