Torsion � (Most likely) DDX at this point? 2. Ruptured hemorrhagic cyst Her pain � 3. Fibroids “excruciating”, constant but w/ episodes of incr intensity � � But first, rule out…? 4. PID/ TOA � started right after sex yesterday 1. Appendicitis + n/v � 2. Ectopic pregnancy 5

  6. 10/28/2016 Fernanda Amanda’s workup Adnexal (ovarian) torsion 1. Torsion � Transvaginal ultrasound obtained � Complete or partial rotation of ovary or tube on its ligaments 2. Ruptured hemorrhic cyst 3. Fibroids � Radiologist calls in a panic: � Often results in impedance of blood flow � pain 4. PID/ TOA “There’s no flow to the right ovary!” � � Risk increases w/ size of mass � Your next step is to… � More likely w/ benign masses � Rush her to the OR? � Ask if they see an adnexal mass � More common in pregnancy � 7cm solid and cystic mass on R ovary, no free fluid, L ov WNL � Consistent with dermoid Varras et al.
