Abstract

Ovarian torsion is one of the common gynecological emergency occurring in women during reproductive age. Here, we are presenting a case of 19-year-old unmarried young girl who came with complaints of pain in abdomen associated with vomiting. She had a history of left-sided ovarian torsion for which she underwent laparoscopic left salpingo–oophorectomy. She underwent right-sided oophoropexy for recurrent torsion.
