Ovarian Torsion Signs, Symptoms, Causes, Treatment
What is ovarian torsion?
Ovarian torsion is a condition in which the ovary twists around its ligaments, leading to a loss of blood supply. This can cause severe pain and potentially lead to the death of the ovary if not treated promptly.

What causes ovarian torsion?
Ovarian torsion can be caused by a variety of factors, including a rapid growth of a cyst, pregnancy, or adhesions that form after surgery. It is also more common in women who have a history of previous torsion or who have an ovary that is more mobile than normal.

What are the symptoms of ovarian torsion?
The most common symptoms of ovarian torsion are sudden and severe pain in the lower abdomen, nausea and vomiting, and a rapid pulse. In some cases, there may also be a fever and bloating.

How is ovarian torsion diagnosed?
Ovarian torsion is typically diagnosed using a combination of physical examination, imaging tests such as ultrasound or CT scan, and blood tests to check for markers of inflammation.

What is the treatment for ovarian torsion?
The primary treatment for ovarian torsion is surgery to untwist the ovary and restore its blood supply. In some cases, the affected ovary may need to be removed, particularly if it has been damaged due to the loss of blood flow.

Can ovarian torsion be prevented?
In some cases, ovarian torsion can be prevented by surgically fixing an ovary in place to prevent it from twisting. Women who have a history of torsion may also be advised to avoid activities that put pressure on their abdomen.

Is ovarian torsion life-threatening?
Ovarian torsion can be life-threatening if not treated promptly, as the loss of blood flow to the ovary can cause damage or death to the tissue. Early recognition and treatment of ovarian torsion is important to prevent potential complications.

What are the potential complications of ovarian torsion?
Potential complications of ovarian torsion include the death of the ovary, infertility, and the development of adhesions that can cause future pain and complications. If not treated promptly, ovarian torsion can also lead to more serious conditions such as sepsis.
