Pediatric and adolescent females are at higher risk of adnexal torsion recurrence—A large‐scale retrospective study

Recurrence of adnexal torsion (rAT) is reported mainly in small series. Normal and small appearing ovaries are associated with an increased risk for rAT. Nevertheless, updated data of larger cohorts is lacking. We aimed to investigate the predictors for rAT in a cohort of women who had surgical intervention for primary adnexal torsion (pAT).
