Surgical Results and Current Status of Adnexal Torsion Management, with a Comparison of Entire Adnexal Torsion and Isolated Fallopian Tube Torsion: A Single-center Study
Adnexal torsion can lead to necrosis of the ovary or fallopian tube; thus, it is important to make an accurate diagnosis and provide appropriate treatment as soon as possible. When selecting a surgical procedure in reproductive-aged women, it is recommended that ovarian function - sparing procedures be actively considered, except in cases of advanced necrosis, with the understanding that there is often a discrepancy between intraoperative macroscopic necrosis findings and pathological necrosis that identified by postoperative pathological examination (discrepancy rate was 31% in this study).
