Ovarian torsion is a critical gynecological emergency that presents with sudden-onset abdominal pain and requires immediate intervention to prevent irreversible ovarian damage. This case report describes a 25-year-old female who presented with acute right lower quadrant pain, which had escalated to excruciating levels over the past 45 minutes, accompanied by persistent nausea and vomiting. She had no fever, vaginal bleeding, or dysuria, and her urine pregnancy test was negative. A physical examination revealed significant tenderness and guarding in the right lower abdomen, with no evidence of organomegaly or abnormal pelvic findings. Imaging studies, including ultrasound, confirmed the diagnosis of a complete ovarian torsion with associated necrosis. The patient underwent successful laparoscopic surgery, which involved the removal of the necrotic ovary and affected fallopian tube. Postoperative recovery was uneventful, and the patient fully recovered within a week. This case underscores the importance of early diagnosis and surgical intervention in managing ovarian torsion to preserve ovarian function and prevent complications.
