ADNEXAL TORSION WITH A TORSED PARAOVARIAN CYST: A THERAPEUTIC ILLUSION
Journal Title: Indian Obstetrics & Gynaecology - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 1
Abstract
Adnexal torsion with a torsed ipsilateral paraovarian cyst is a rare surgical emergency. Unfortunately diagnosis is often delayed and detorsion is usually not performed fearing showers of emboli and salpingo-oophorectomies are still being done, a catastrophe. We aim to present the approach we adopted, method of detortion, time taken to assess the recovery of ovary and fallopian tube after detorsion and the outcome achieved.
