Abstract

Acute abdomen during pregnancy is a condition that requires rapid diagnosis and treatment and threatens both maternal and fetal health. Adnexal masses may present different clinical presentations during pregnancy. The important thing is rapid diagnosis and application of the appropriate treatment method. Adnexal torsion should be kept in mind in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with acute abdomen during pregnancy. Early diagnosis and treatment are vital for organ-preserving surgery.
In this article, we presented the successful treatment of a patient with laparoscopy surgery who applied to our clinic due to acute abdomen and was diagnosed with left ovarian torsion at 12 weeks' gestation.

Abstract

Gebelikte akut batın tablosu, hızlı tanı ve tedavi edilmesi gereken ve hem maternal hem de fetal sağlığı tehdit eden bir durumdur. Adneksial kitleler gebelikte farklı klinik tablolar sergileyebilmektedirler. Önemli olan hızlı tanı ve uygun tedavi yönteminin uygulanmasıdır. Gebelik sırasında akut batın kliniği ile başvuran hastalarda ayırıcı tanıda adneksiyal torsiyon mutlaka akılda tutulmalıdır. Erken tanı ve tedavi organ koruyucu cerrahi yapılması açısından hayati öneme sahiptir.
Bu yazıda kliniğimize akut batın nedeniyle başvuran 12 haftalık gebelik ile birlikte sol over torsiyon tespit edilen olgunun laparoskopi cerrahi ile başarılı bir şekilde tedavisini sunduk.
