Abstract
Ovarian torsion is often difficult to diagnose due to non-specific clinical and ultrasonographic findings. We demonstrated the use of color Doppler for the early diagnosis of ovarian torsion and for post-operative follow-up until the normalization of the preserved ovary was confirmed by subsequent viable pregnancy. Color Doppler flow assessment can be useful as both a diagnostic tool and for evaluating the recovery of the affected ovary after conservative surgical treatment.
