Abstract

Adnexal torsion is one of the most common surgical gynecologic emergencies and needs prompt diagnosis. It usually occurs during reproductive age, which makes the early diagnosis all the more important in attempting to preserve ovarian function. If adnexal torsion is suspected from the clinical findings, Doppler ultrasound can be the best tool in diagnosis. It can also be helpful in assessing recovery of the ovary after surgical treatment. We present a case of adnexal torsion successfully diagnosed with power Doppler ultrasound and managed by detorsion. The postoperative gray-scale and power Doppler examination confirmed the recovery of ovarian follicles and stoma.
