Abstract

Ovarian torsion is a gynecological emergency generally affecting women of reproductive age, and urgent surgical intervention is required to preserve ovarian function. Recurrent ipsilateral ovarian torsion is rarely seen but may cause a severe decrease in reproductive capacity. Different surgical techniques have been described to prevent this. The case presented here is of a 26-year old female with recurrent ipsilateral ovarian torsion, complicated by an ovarian rupture in the third episode of torsion.

Özet

Over torsiyonu, genellikle üreme çağındaki kadınları etkileyen jinekolojik bir acil durumdur ve over fonksiyonunu korumak için acil cerrahi müdahale gereklidir. Tekrarlayan ipsilateral over torsiyonu nadiren görülür ancak üreme kapasitesinde ciddi bir azalmaya neden olabilir. Bunu önlemek için farklı cerrahi teknikler tarif edilmiştir. Burada sunulan vaka, üçüncü kez torsiyon olan ve over rüptürü ile komplike olan tekrarlayan ipsilateral over torsiyonu olan 26 yaşında bir kadına aittir
