Abstract
Isolated fallopian tube torsion during pregnancy is a very
rare condition. We report a case of twisted left fallopian
tube during pregnancy who presented as a case of acute
abdomen at 23 weeks and laparotomy was carried out.
Subsequently she had a healthy baby by assisted vaginal
breech delivery. Isolated fallopian tube torsion should be
suspected in case of acute pelvic pain and prompt
intervention is necessary as surgical detorsion may prevent
irreversible vascular changes.
