Ovarian cyst torsion refers to the rotation of ovarian cyst along its long axis, which can lead to obstruction of ovarian venous return, hemorrhage or infarction in tumor, and even serious complications such as ovarian necrosis and rupture.

What is ovarian cyst torsion

Acute abdominal pain can occur when ovarian cyst torsion occurs, usually after body position change, strenuous exercise or sexual life. Some patients may also be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, abdominal distension, low fever and other symptoms. Patients can do gynecological examination, B ultrasound examination, etc., to help diagnose ovarian cyst torsion, and understand the size, location and shape of the cyst.

once diagnosed, surgery should be performed as soon as possible to reset the ovary and fix it. If the ovary can still be preserved, surgery will repair ovarian tissue as much as possible. After surgery, ovarian function and recovery should be closely monitored.
