Abstract
A case is reported of an isolated torsion of the left fallopian tube in a 12-year-old premenarchal girl, and the relevant literature is reviewed. This would seem to be an infrequent cause of acute abdominal pain in girls, and is rarely diagnosed preoperatively. The correct treatment is detorsion of a viable tube, or salpingectomy if ischaemia and necrosis have occurred.Entities:
