On vaginal examination, she had tenderness and fullness in the pouch of Douglas (POD) with cervical excitation. A pelvic ultrasound scan demonstrated a normal uterus and ovaries with a hypo-echoic cystic structure measuring 6x5 cm adjacent to the right ovary within the recto uterine pouch and ...
In this instance, we have a 52-year-old woman who complained of lower abdominal pain on the right side. A transvaginal ultrasonography (USG) was done, and torsion of the right ovary was found. On further exploration, it was found to be gangrenous.CureusIshaan M. DeshmukhObstetrics and ...
Blood exams showed rise of CRP (19 mg/L) and normal WBC. An ultrasound performed in the A&E department was normal. Because of the persistence of pain, we repeated an ultrasound the day after that showed an anechogenic uniloculated 18 mm cyst at the level of the right ovary. The ...
The tumor markers that were examined to determine the presence of malignancy were within normal ranges. She underwent surgery; her right ovary was found to be autoamputated due to torsion. The amputated necrotic, wandering ovary was removed, and the cysts in the contralateral ovary were drained ...
However, fixing an enlarged ovary to the pelvic wall in the limited space of the pelvis is challenging.Herein, we present a case of MOE of the right ovary diagnosed at the fifth week of gestation after ovulation induced by clomiphene citrate. Torsion of the ovary occurred...
The case involves a 33-year-old woman who presented with lower abdominal cramps at 6 2 weeks of pregnancy. An ultrasound scan revealed a clear cyst in the right ovary, and the patient was initially managed conservatively. However, she later experienced sudden onset of severe abdominal pain and...
It consists of a partial or complete rotation of the ovarian vascular pedicle, and causes obstruction of blood flow [33]. It can also cause serious pelvic pain in females. Misdiagnosis may lead to ischemia of the ovary and subsequent infertility [34]. Ovarian torsion greater than 360 degrees ...
Unlike in our patient, ovarian torsion occurs more often in the right adnexa, presumably because the sigmoid colon limits the mobility of the left ovary.1Almost without exception, torsion occurs when the ovary is enlarged secondary to cysts or neoplasms. The majority of cysts are functional. The...
A case of torsion of a normal right ovary and tube in an 8-year-old child is presented. True infarction of the adnexa can be prevented only by considering this diagnosis early in the course of right lower quadrant pain. It is recommended that a routine exploration of the pelvis be carried...
Partial or complete rotation of ovarian pedicle Results in lymphatic and venous engorgement in partial rotation, or in early torsion Results in ischemia or infarction in complete rotation, or in late torsion Typically unilateral and more commonly right sided Typically both the ovary and the fallopian...
