Laparoscopic-assisted surgery for benign ovarian cyst in a young girl.
A 7-year-old girl was admitted to our hospital because of sudden lower abdominal pain and vomiting. Emergency laparoscopy and cystectomy were performed, with a diagnosis of torsion of an ovarian cyst. All manipulations were possible through a 2-cm incision in the abdominal wall.
