Introduction: Isolated fallopian tube torsion (IFTT) is an exceedingly rare but serious cause of acute abdominal pain, especially in pediatric patients, with a reported prevalence of 1 in 1.5 million women. It occurs when the fallopian tube twists around its own axis, leading to venous and lymphatic obstruction, ischemia, and potential necrosis, without involving the ipsilateral ovary.

A desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) presented in a 13-year-old female with an acute abdomen due to torsion of a fallopian tube cyst. She was found to have an incidental 2 cm pedunculated, solid, and multicystic mass attached to the pelvic floor on laparoscopy. The neoplasm had a variably myxoid and spindle cell pattern with nests and cords of small cells, forming pseudocysts, and true cysts lined by ciliated epithelium which were PAX-8+ and ER+/PR+.

Article Synopsis
- A 32-year-old woman pregnant after frozen embryo transfer faced ovarian torsion, diagnosed via ultrasound, leading to urgent laparoscopic surgery where the ovary was rotated back and a cyst was treated.
- Post-surgery, intensive support and infection treatment were successful, indicating that using clomiphene citrate for embryo transfer could increase torsion risk, but laparoscopic surgery is generally safe during pregnancy.

Article Synopsis
- * The report highlighted two cases of ovarian torsion following laparoscopic radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer, where both patients underwent a procedure meant to prevent this complication but still experienced torsion.
- * With ovarian torsion occurring in 1-8% of post-hysterectomy cases and rising cervical cancer rates among younger women, further research and improved surgical techniques are essential for better prevention and diagnosis.
