The author has reviewed the search, observations, and theoretical studies of extragalactic OH megamasers. So far 31 OH megamaser galaxies have been found. The OH megamaser galaxy IC 4553 was the first one discovered and a unique one observed with VLA-A, MERLIN, and VLBI. According to the present theoretical studies the mechanism for forming extragalactic OH megamasers is that the pumping of infrared radiation inverts OH maser molecules and radio continuous radiation from the core of the galaxies is amplified.
