Analysis shows increased ovarian salvage rates in pediatric patients with adnexal torsion, suggesting improved outcomes since APSA's 2017 guidelines.

Ovarian salvage rates improved post-APSA guidelines, with 78.2% of patients undergoing successful detorsion.
Mean age of patients was 10.9 years, and no intraoperative complications were recorded during the procedures.
Oophorectomy was performed in 21.8% of cases, with significant rates of necrosis and a minority associated with tumors.
Pregnancy outcomes in the cohort included 7 live births out of 10 patients with recorded data post-treatment.

Mudreac et al. (2025) studied this question.
