Abstract
- Uterine leiomyoma is the most frequent gynecologic tumor, but acute torsion of uterine leiomyoma is extremely rare. We report a case of a patient who had suffered lower abdominal pain for 2 weeks. Ultrasonogram showed a subserosal uterine leiomyoma. Laparoscopic surgery confirmed the diagnosis of acute torsion of a subserosal uterine leiomyoma.
