Primary omental torsion – A rare case report

Primary omental torsion occurs when the mobile thickened segment of the omentum rotates around a proximal fixed point in the absence of any association or secondary intra abdominal pathology and is reported rarely in literature. Our patient was a 55 year old postmenopausal woman who presented with acute abdominal pain on the right side for 3 days and was diagnosed to have primary omental torsion.
