Article Abstract

The imaging findings associated with internal abdominal hernia have been reported for plain radiography, barium studies, arteriography and computed tomography. The authors present a case in which the ultrasonographic findings indicated left paraduodenal hernia. In the investigation of an abdominal mass, the presence of changing cystic or tubular internal components and a surrounding membrane should arouse suspicion of an internal hernia.

Rationale: Ovarian tumor torsion is a critical gynecological emergency, predominantly affecting women of reproductive age, with benign teratomas being the most common culprits. In contrast, malignant ovarian tumors, such as mucinous cystadenocarcinoma, infrequently present with torsion due to their invasive and angiogenic characteristics. The occurrence of torsion in malignant tumors complicates diagnosis and management, particularly when associated with complications like congestion, infarction, and internal bleeding.
