| Abstract: | Adnexal torsion is an unusual, but serious complication in pregnancy. The treatment is surgical, but this may increase the risk of pregnancy loss in the first trimester. The use of laparoscopic surgery, which is less invasive than traditional laparotomy, has been limited by diagnostic and technical difficulties including determination of ovarian tumor nature and spillage of cyst contents intraoperatively. A 25-year-old woman in her 11 th week of pregnancy had acute severe left lower-abdominal pain, which was diagnosed as left ovarian teratoma with torsion. She underwent emergency laparoscopic surgery with unwinding of the twisted fallopian tube and ovary and cystectomy of the teratoma. The patient subsequently delivered a full-term baby, without complications. Accurate ultrasound and cytologic diagnoses along with copious intraoperative warm, normal saline irrigation were likely contributing factors to the successful outcome of this case. |
