It is a rare gynecological emergency. We report the case of adnexal torsion on a large postpartum ovarian cyst in a 40-year-old patient. The diagnosis was suspected based on clinical and ultrasound signs and confirmed by exploratory laparotomy. The appearance of the cyst was suggestive of a mucinous cystadenoma of the ovary. The treatment was radical by performing an adnexectomy. The surgical piece weighed 5.2 kg. The postoperative course was simple. Anatomopathological examination had not been carried out;the parents had buried the operating piece.展开更多
