Abstract
A 45-year-old woman presented severe right lower abdominal pain. Transabdom inal sonography demonstrated bilateral adnexal cystic masses. At surgery, t hese cystic masses were bilateral simple hydrosalpinges with torsion of the right side. She had previously had tubal ligation. When we encounter an ad nexal torsion, we should consider tubal torsion when there is a history of tubal ligation.
