Laparoscopic Torsion Ovary

Laparoscopic surgery for ovarian torsion is a minimally invasive procedure to untwist the ovary and restore blood flow. Ovarian torsion occurs when the ovary twists around its supporting ligaments, cutting off its blood supply. Symptoms include severe pelvic pain, nausea, and vomiting. The procedure involves making small incisions in the abdomen to insert a laparoscope and surgical instruments. The ovary is carefully untwisted and assessed for viability. If the ovary is healthy, it is repositioned and secured to prevent recurrence. If necrosis has occurred, oophorectomy (removal of the ovary) may be necessary. Laparoscopic surgery offers faster recovery, less pain, and minimal scarring compared to open surgery. Post-operative care includes pain management, avoiding strenuous activities, and regular follow-ups. Early intervention is crucial to preserving ovarian function and fertility. Laparoscopic detorsion is a safe and effective treatment for ovarian torsion, significantly improving patient outcomes.
