2025年1月30日 · Ovarian torsion has an increased incidence throughout pregnancy and the post-partum period, but especially between 10-17 weeks gestation, related to persistent corpus luteum cysts. Ovarian torsion has been observed in the fetus and …

2023年8月8日 · Ovarian torsion typically occurs on one side. If your ovaries become twisted, you’ll experience a lot of abdominal pain and will likely need immediate medical attention and possibly emergency...

2024年3月20日 · Isolated torsion of the fallopian tube is less common, and torsion of paratubal, broad ligament, and paraovarian cysts may also occur. Prompt diagnosis is important to preserve ovarian and/or tubal function and to prevent other associated morbidity.

An ovarian cyst is a fluid-filled sac in or on the surface of an ovary. It often forms during or after ovulation. The larger the cyst, the more likely that ovarian torsion will occur. With ovarian torsion, the blood supply to the ovary can be blocked and permanently hurt the ovary.

2023年7月28日 · Dermoid cysts and cystadenomas can become large and move the ovary out of position. This increases the chance of painful twisting of the ovary, called ovarian torsion. Ovarian torsion may reduce or stop blood flow to the ovary.

Ovarian torsion occurs when an ovarian cyst or mass presents and rotates both the infundibulopelvic ligament and the UO ligament. The cyst or mass is usually a benign lesion over 5 cm in diameter [12,13,14,15].

2023年7月17日 · Ovarian torsion is caused by twisting of the ligaments that support the adnexa, cutting off the blood flow to the organ and represents a true surgical emergency. In order to avoid the high morbidity associated with this condition, it must be promptly diagnosed and treated.

2024年7月3日 · Ovarian torsion is an emergency condition in which the ovary and fallopian tube twist around the surrounding tissues, cutting off blood supply. It requires a quick diagnosis and intervention to save the ovary and reproductive parts. People with large ovarian cysts or masses are most likely to develop torsion.

2016年3月30日 · Most cases involve an enlarged ovary (i.e. a cyst, mass, multiple ovarian follicles). This enlarged ovary then rotates on the axis of the ligaments. The twisting of the ligaments restricts lymphatic outflow resulting in congestion and further swelling. The swelling inhibits venous return, which results in additional congestion.
