Özet
Isolated tubal torsion containing an ectopic pregnancy is a very rare event. Ectopic pregnancy may also cause these symptoms and may impede the diagnosis of tubal torsion when these two coexist. We present a case with isolated fallopian tube torsion containing an ectopic pregnancy. A 25-year-old gravida 2, parity 0 woman presented with left lower abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding. Sonography revealed a 2 cm adnexal mass adjacent to the left ovary. ß-hCG level was 157 mIU/ml. Laparoscopy depicted torsion of the left fallopian tube together with an ectopic pregnancy. Left salpingectomy was performed. The clinician should also think about tubal torsion when the pain is intermittent and if he suspicious about the ectopic pregnancy.
