2017, Journal of Pediatric and Adolescent GynecologyCitation Excerpt :OT is more common on the right side than on the left side.26,27 This incidence might be explained presumably because the presence of the sigmoid colon is responsible for reduced mobility of the left adnexa.28 In our experience torsion involved the right ovary in 66.1% of cases (82 of 125) and involvement of the left ovary was reported in 33% cases (41 of 125).
Rates and Technique for Oophoropexy in Pediatric Ovarian Torsion: A Single-Institution Case Series
2017, Journal of Pediatric and Adolescent GynecologyCitation Excerpt :The recurrence rate after pediatric and adolescent OT in our institution was 6.2% overall, 2.9% of patients with OT associated with a discrete ovarian or adnexal mass, and 14.8% of patients with idiopathic OT, similar to the reported rates of Beaunoyer et al. A number of theories have been proposed to explain the torsion events in normal adnexa, these include abnormally long tubes, mesovarium or mesosalpinx leading to increase ovary mobility21; long utero-ovarian ligaments18; as well as impeded venous return with stasis and congestion resulting in a heavier ovary.22 Because of the theories of long ligaments and ovarian or adnexal mobility, OP has been proposed and used as a potential solution to prevent the occurrence or recurrence of OT.
