Abstract:
Torsion of the ovarian cyst is a gynecological emergency that can arise during pregnancy. Regardless of gestational age, surgical procedures should be explored in the course of the growth of adnexal torsion. Although ovarian torsion is not as common during pregnancy and may be an incidental finding, it is always better to stay cautious. If neglected, they may be deemed hazardous to both the baby and the mother. Here we are reporting a case of a 25-year-old multigravida woman who is in the first trimester of her pregnancy, and presented with the complaint of acute abdominal pain for 3 days. On ultrasound, torsion of the right ovarian cyst was found. She underwent laparoscopy and a right-sided salpingo-oophorectomy was done. The biopsy report revealed a benign hemorrhagic cyst. She has been under observation and is asymptomatic, with clear imaging and laboratory values.
