Abstract

Recently, we experienced the conservative management of ovarian cyst torsion using transvaginal ultrasonography-guided aspiration in 39 years old woman at 9 weeks of gestational age. The patient had a 7.3 cm-sized ovarian cyst suspected torsion. The symptom was acute lower abdominal pain. Transvaginal cyst aspiration was performed twice. The symptom was resolved after the procedures. The full term delivery was done by vaginal route and the ovarian cyst disappeared.
