Torsión anexial como causa de abdomen agudo en una paciente adolescente

Abstract

Acute abdomen due to adnexal torsion in adolescence is rare. One of the main reasons this diagnosis is frequently missed at first presentation is the diverse clinical presentation. When ovarian torsion cannot be excluded, diagnostic laparoscopy should be performed. We present a rare case of ovarian and fallopian torsion in a 15-year-old girl who presented with acute lower left abdominal pain and was treated by laparoscopic surgery.
