Abstract
:
To report a case of laparoscopic untwisting of the adnexa in pregnancy followed by unilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Case Report and literature review. A 26-year old, G1 PO, 12 week pregnant woman was admitted with a sudden onset of lower abdominal pain. Examination showed that the lower abdomen was tender. Pelvic examination revealed a 12-week sized uterus and exquisite tenderness with ill-defined fullness in the right adnexa. Ultrasonography confirmed the presence of 10 x 8 cm right adnexal mass. At laparoscopy, a 10 x 8 bluish-black, ischemic adnexa was seen. With gentle manipulation, the adnexa was untwisted 720 degrees around the ovarian pedicle. Nevertheless, normal color did not reappear and there was no evidence of normalization of ovarian perfusion. Therefore, right adnexectomy was per-formed through a Pfanenastiel incision. Final pathology confirmed infarcted and necrotic adnexa. Conservative laparoscopic treatment of adnexal torsion is gaining popularity. Presented here is a case of infarcted adnexa despite untwisting. Lack of normal color and ovarian perfusion after laparoscopic untwisting calls for removal of the adnexa
