A VERY RARE CASE: THE DEVELOPMENT OF TUBA-OVARİAN TORSİON İN ENDOMETRİOMA

Endometriosis is increasingly diagnosed in women of reproductive age and is estimated to affect up to 10% of women. Endometriomas are a common antithesis in patients of reproductive age and require special planning and experience for optimal treatment. Endometroma in rare cases occurs with an acute abdominal picture. However, adnexal torsion is very rare in these patients. Because endometriomas are often tightly adherent to neighboring structures, and therefore they seem less likely to cause adnexal torsion, although there is insufficient data on the torsion rate in these cysts. With this case report, we thought to contribute to the literature with the case of torsion in endometrioma.

Abstract

Endometriosis is increasingly diagnosed in women of reproductive age and is estimated to affect up to 10% of women. Endometriomas are a common antithesis in patients of reproductive age and require special planning and experience for optimal treatment. Endometroma in rare cases occurs with an acute abdominal picture. However, adnexal torsion is very rare in these patients. Because endometriomas are often tightly adherent to neighboring structures, and therefore they seem less likely to cause adnexal torsion, although there is insufficient data on the torsion rate in these cysts. With this case report, we thought to contribute to the literature with the case of torsion in endometrioma.
