Abstract:
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE:Adnexal torsion is a serious condition that frequently may result in ovarian removal, and there always is a risk of castration if the contralateral ovary undergo torsion as well. In this study, the authors present their experience with adnexal torsion in 15 children and describe a catastrophic event, asynchronous bilateral adnexal torsion, with review of the literature. METHODS:Between November 1993 and November 2000, 15 children under 15 years of age who had undergone operation because of torsion of uterine adnexal structures were evaluated. Two illustrative cases with asynchronous bilateral adnexal torsion are presented. RESULTS:Fourteen cases were associated with additional adnexal pathology, whereas in 1 case the torsion was of normal uterine adnexa. Sonographic studies improved the preoperative diagnosis. Hemorrhagic necrosis of the adnexa secondary to the torsion was found in all cases except 3 and necessitated adnexal resection. In only 3 cases preservation of the adnexa was possible. Asynchronous adnexal torsion occurred in 2 patients in the time course. Both were treated by laparotomy and adnexal untwisting and fixation by permanent multiple interrupted sutures. In their final evaluation at 40 and 8 months after the operation, they were found to have good ovarian function. CONCLUSION:Considering the risk of subsequent contralateral torsion and its impact on future fertility, the authors believe that conservative management (untwisting the ovary and pexing, both retained detorsed and contralateral, ovaries) should be considered in cases of ovarian torsion in children.
