A case of torted parafimbrial cyst on MRI: case report and review of the literature.
Para-ovarian cysts (POCs) are an occasional finding at surgery, although they are rarely appreciated on imaging studies. Accurate diagnosis depends upon the demonstration of a para-ovarian location. We present the MR appearances of a torted POC in a fimbrial location, resembling a dermoid cyst.
