Objective: To develop and validate an individualized nomogram for predicting adnexal torsion in women with abdominal pain and an adnexal mass based on preoperative non-contrast computed tomography (CT) findings.
Methods: This retrospective study included 200 women with surgically resected ovarian lesions who underwent preoperative non-contrast CT for abdominal pain from January 2017 to September 2023 in seven hospitals. The 200 patients were randomly divided into a development group (140 cases) and a validation group (60 cases).
