Ovarian torsion also called adnexal torsion causes sudden, severe pelvic pain and sometimes nausea and vomiting.
Ovarian torsion usually presents with sudden onset of severe, unilateral lower abdominal pain, associated with nausea and vomiting; however, in a small percentage of cases, the clinical course is prolonged, as the torsion can be intermittent.
While failure to consider ovarian torsion in the differential diagnosis is not uncommon, given its relatively low occurrence, timely diagnosis is of paramount importance to prevent necrosis and preserve ovarian viability.
