Abstract

Isolated tubal torsion is a very rare entity with a reported incidence of 1: 1.500.000. In postmenopausal period it is even more rare. In this case report we present a postmenopausal patient with subacute pelvic pain and adnexal mass whose definitive diagnosis at laparotomy was isolated tubal torsion. Until now, to our knowledge, only 3 cases of postmenopausal isolated tubal torsion has been described in the literature. One-month duration of symptoms indicating the subacute nature of torsion was also unique in this case. Intraoperatively, the right tube was twisted 7-8 times just beside a paratubal cyst which is in the form of a 10x8x8 cm hemorrhagic necrotic cystic mass. Total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingoophorectomy and appendectomy procedure was undertaken.

Özet

İzole tüp torsiyonu literatürde bildirilmiş1: 1.500.000 insidansı ile çok nadir görülen bir durumdur. Postmenopozal dönemde daha da nadir görülmektedir. Bu olgu sunumunda subakut pelvik ağrı ve adneksiyal kitle bulguları olan ve laparotomide izole tüp torsiyonu tanısı konan postmenopozal bir hastayı sunmaktayız. Bilgilerimiz ıflığında literatürde bugüne kadar bildirilmiş3 adet postmenopozal izole tüp torsiyonu olgusu bulunmaktadır. Olgumuzda semptomların bir aydır devam etmesi torsiyonun subakut bir süreçte gelifltiğini göstermesi bakımından önemlidir. İntraoperatif olarak, sağ tüpün, 10x8x8 cm'lik hemorajik, nekrotik, kistik kitle fleklindeki bir paratubal kist ile temas noktasından 7-8 kez torsiyone olduğu görüldü. Total abdominal histerektomi, bilateral salpingooforektomi ve appendektomi ifllemi uygulandı.
