Acute appendicitis and adnexal torsion are leading causes of acute surgical abdomen in female patients. However, the simultaneous occurrence of these 2 conditions is extremely rare. Here, we present an extraordinary case of a woman radiologically diagnosed with ovarian dermoid torsion coexisting with acute appendicitis. The patient was managed operatively by surgeons from the respective fields in a single setting, thereby meeting the patient's standard of care. This case provides valuable insight into the possible coexistence of acute adnexal pathology with acute bowel pathology and vice versa, emphasizing that radiologists should avoid satisfaction of search after a single possible explanation of the condition. |
