A rare case of isolated fallopian tubal torsion in adolescent girls: A case report and system review of literature.

Isolated torsion of a fallopian tube in adolescent girls is a very rare acute abdomen. How to early diagnose and treatment isolated torsion of a fallopian tube has always been one of key points. We reported a rare case of isolated torsion of a fallopian tube in a 14-year-old girl and conducted a systematic review of the literature over the past 21 years. We collected data on clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment, prognosis and follow-up outcomes. According to our research strategies, 43 reported cases were included. The results (Mean ± SD) showed that the onset age was 14.09 ± 2.49, the cycle torsion was 2.79 ± 1.18, and the cyst size was 6.43 ± 2.25. The main clinical symptoms (percentage) are 100% lower abdominal pain, 67.44% nausea, 51.16% vomiting, and 50.00% right side lesions. And the accurate rate of preoperative diagnosis was only 27.91%, in which laparoscopic exploration, tubal necrosis, and tubal preservation accounted for 79.07%, 41.86%, and 32.56%, respectively. Extremely difficult diagnosis of isolated torsion of a fallopian tube, because of non-specific clinical manifestations, led to the adverse clinical outcome of salpingectomy. However, the accuracy of preoperative diagnosis can be improved by improving acknowledge of ultrasound diagnosis and the awareness of clinical gynecologists. However, the accuracy of preoperative diagnosis can be improved by improving knowledge of ultrasound diagnosis and awareness of clinical gynecologists. The laparoscopic exploration is sole gold standard for diagnosis and treatment. The operation of preserving the fallopian tube may be the first choice, especially in the early stage of isolated torsion of a fallopian tube.
