Objective: To introduce a new surgical approach, oophoropexy to prevent recurrent adnexal torsion.
Design: Case report and review of the literature.
Setting: The obstetrics and gynecology department of a university hospital.
Patient(s): A 29-year-old pregnant patient who had three events of torsion of the adnexa after stimulation.
Intervention(s): Laparoscopic oophoropexy.
Main outcome measure(s): Incidence of torsion.
Result(s): No more torsion events were registered during the ongoing pregnancy.
Conclusion(s): Laparoscopic oophoropexy is recommended in emergency situations to increase adnexal salvage and to prevent a recurrence.
