Ipsilateral Salpingopexy in a Case of Isolated Tubal Torsion
Isolated fallopian tube torsion (IFTT) is a rare emergency condition affecting young females. Due to the diagnostic dilemma, diagnosis of IFTT is often delayed leading to tubal necrosis and salpingectomy as the only choice of treatment. If diagnosed early, it can be managed conservatively by detorsi...

description | Isolated fallopian tube torsion (IFTT) is a rare emergency condition affecting young females. Due to the diagnostic dilemma, diagnosis of IFTT is often delayed leading to tubal necrosis and salpingectomy as the only choice of treatment. If diagnosed early, it can be managed conservatively by detorsion. Salpingopexy is an option described in the literature to prevent recurrence of this condition; however, evidence is scarce. This case report highlights the role of prompt diagnosis and management of IFTT. It describes a case of IFTT with paratubal cysts and a long tube in a young female, which was timely diagnosed and managed conservatively by laparoscopic detorsion, paratubal cystectomy, and ipsilateral salpingopexy. |
