LAPAROSCOPIC UNWINDING OF ADNEXAL TORSION CAUSED BY OVARIAN HYPERSTIMULATION

A case of laparoscopic unwinding of a twisted enlarged ovary and Fallo pian tube caused by ovarian hyperstimulation is presented. The laparos copic unwinding was simple and was carried out in a short time. The pa tient's post-operative course was uneventful. Complications such as th romboembolism were not observed and the post-operative ovarian functio n was well preserved after such procedures. Preservation of the ovary is highly important in young infertile women. Prompt diagnosis with an immediate unwinding of the twisted adnexa by a laparoscopic technique can produce a valuable outcome.
