RESUMO
Uterine torsion is an uncommon entity that is defined as a rotation of greater than 45° around the longitudinal axis of the uterus. Although cases of uterine torsion among pregnant patients have been mentioned in the literature, torsion of a non-gravid uterus is a rare occurrence. A 73-year-old nulliparous woman with a known fibroid uterus underwent a total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy with frozen section of a 17-18 cm pelvic mass seen on CT imaging. The source of the pelvic mass was unclear on imaging, and benign and malignant possibilities were discussed. During the procedure, necrosis of the uterine fundus and bilateral adnexa were seen due to the fundus being torsed with the uterine fibroid being the pivot point. Uterine torsion, though rare, can be the cause of acute pelvic pain in a postmenopausal woman.
