The clinical picture is nonspecific, and children cannot always articulate their\u00a0 symptoms, which often make the diagnosis a challenge. Because of its nonspecific manifestations, ovarian torsion is often confused with other conditions, such as appendicitis and is diagnosed late. We report a case of a 7 years old girl presented with acute abdomen. Imaging showed a left adnexal mass with doubtful vascularity. Exploratory laparotomy followed and a left salpingo &#8211; oopherectomy was performed. Left sided ovarian torsion is a rare presentation of adnexal torsion in this age group.<\/p>\n<p><em>Keywords:<\/em> ovary, torsion, adnexal tumor<\/p>\n<p>p.\u00a0 23-29<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Singh Kamal, Thakur Sita, Sharma Monika<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hjog.org\/wp-content\/pdf\/2015\/Adnexal torsion in a 7 - year - old girl; dilemma in diagnosis and treatment.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-130\" src=\"https:\/\/hjog.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/pdf-icons-free-icons-in-file-icons-18.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"48\" height=\"48\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Ovarian torsion is an infrequent diagnosis in the pediatric age group but can be catastrophic, especially if ovarian salvage is not possible.
