Résumé
Ovarian torsion (OT) is a medical emergency which can have significant clinical consequences. It is surgically treated by either detorsion with or without oophoropexy, or oophorectomy. In this report, a case of left OT is described after prior hysterectomy and bilateral prophylactic oophoropexy three years prior. The patient presented with progressive left flank and abdominal pain. The diagnosis of torsion was made using a combination of CT and MR imaging with confirmation at surgery and pathology. At laparoscopic surgery, the left ovary was found at the level of iliac crest posterior to the descending colon. The ovary was torsed with hemorrhagic infarction. It was successfully removed. The patient was discharged postoperative day one and is now free of symptoms and complaints. OT is rarely reported after hysterectomy and oophoropexy. This case demonstrates that OT should be kept in the differential even in patients post hysterectomy and/or oophoropexy.
