Isolated fallopian tube torsion is a rare entity that most frequently occurs during the menstruating years, but has also been reported in premenopausal and postmenopausal women. Diagnosis of this condition is often delayed because of the rarity of its occurrence and prolonged investigations to rule out more common causes of acute abdominal pain. A case of a 13-year-old girl with isolated left fallopian tube torsion is presented. A high index of suspicion must be maintained for adnexal torsion in women with abdominal pain so that an attempt can be made to salvage the adnexal structures.
孤立性输卵管扭转是一种罕见的病症,最常发生在育龄期,但也有绝经前和绝经后女性发病的报道。由于其发病率低,且为排除更常见的急性腹痛病因需要进行长时间检查,这种病症的诊断常常被延误。本文报告一例13岁孤立性左侧输卵管扭转的女孩病例。对于腹痛女性,必须高度怀疑附件扭转,以便尝试挽救附件结构。
