ABSTRACT

The dermoid ovarian is an organic mild tumor. It can be revealed by an adnexal torsion which constitutes a gynecological emergency that can bring into play in a short term after the functional prognosis. We are reporting an observed case in an 11-year-old teenager who is in times peri-pubertal. The patient was presenting a painful abdomino-pelvic syndrome and a pelvic mass at the physical examination. The ultrasound was showing a right cyst mass with a right moderated hydronephrosis. A right adnexectomy was realized. The histological test after excision of the adnexal was showing a mature cystic teratoma of the right ovary with a congestive and edematous tubal fragment.
