Torsion of the fallopian tube: progression of sonographic features.
Isolated torsion of the fallopian tube is a rare gynecologic condition that is difficult to diagnose preoperatively. We present the sonographic and CT findings over a 48-hour period in a case of isolated torsion of the fallopian tube. The radiologic features of isolated torsion have been described previously; however, to our knowledge, the progressive findings have not been previously reported.
