Abstract
|
|
|
|
Torsion of the paratubal cyst is a rare but significant cause of acute or recurrent lower abdominal pain in adolescent females that is difficult to recognize preoperatively. Early diagnosis is very important in adolescent because of the risk of decreased fertility if it is not treated at an early stage. We report a case of torsion of the paratubal cyst that has resulted in hemorrhagic infarction of the paratubal cyst and fallopian tube in an adolescent female with brief review of literatures.
