RESUMEN
Adnexal torsion during pregnancy is rare condition that is infrequently diagnosed preoperatively. Its incidence is 1 in 5000 during pregnancy, and adnexal torsion in the third trimester is rare. We present two cases of an adnexal torsion during the third trimester. The one had not been previously diagnosed by ultrasound and was associated with fetal distress and the other had been diagnosed having an ovary cyst by ultrasound in the first trimester. Both of patients were sent to our emergency room for sudden onset of severe low abdominal pain. Treatment was maintenance of adequate circulating intravascular volume and rapid surgical intervention.
