Abstrakt: Objectives: To analyze the clinical characteristics and risk factors related to necrosis of adnexal torsion (AT) and improve the application of ovarian-sparing surgery (OSS).
Material and Methods: Data of 142 patients with 144 surgically confirmed AT lesions between October 2011 and December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.
Results: The risk of torsion caused by tumors was higher than that caused by tumor-like lesions (p = 0.003). The incidence of right adnexal necrosis was higher than that of left adnexal necrosis (p = 0.03). There were no significant differences in adnexal necrosis or onset time (p = 0.29) between groups. The main risk factor for adnexal necrosis was the degree of torsion with a threshold of 510°. The size of adnexal mass and the degree of torsion increased linearly with age. The OSS rate was 59.7% for all patients, and 71.6% in the premenopausal women. No serious complications occurred in any of the patients.
Conclusions: Age, histopathological type, adnexal size, degree of torsion, and pelvic anatomical structure are risk factors for AT and adnexal necrosis. There is no infinite correlation between adnexal necrosis and onset time. Adnexal size is the main risk factor for AT, and along with the risk of adnexal necrosis, increases with age. The degree of torsion is the main risk factor for adnexal necrosis, and torsional severity increases with age. OSS is safe and does not increase the incidence of postoperative complications.
