Ovarian torsion is one of the most challenge diagnosis in gynecological emergency, it is usually associated with varian pathology, as ovarian cysts, PCO, or ovarian tumors and it may be seen in the normal ovaries, replying only on clinical data and ultrasound findings is usually inconclusive. The objective of our study was to demonstrate the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of ovarian torsion with underlying common ovarian retrospectively we reviewed the clinical and MRI features in 5 females with surgically proven ovarian polycystic ovaries, mature teratoma and one case of torsion in normal ovary.
MRI features of ovarian torsion in normal ovary include ovarian edema and enlargement, twisted ovarian pedicle ovarian hemorrhage all are a pathognomonic radiological features even in an ovarian torsion with underlying pathology which are giving specific radiological feature for each ovarian pathology
