Pelvic ultrasound revealed a normal looking uterus and ovaries and next to left ovary a imaging compatible with hydrosalpinx. She was discharged 48\u2009hours later after clinical monitoring with oral analgesia and normal blood workup. At 3 weeks, she was readmitted for acute abdominal pain. Leukocytosis with left shift and raised C-reactive protein were observed. Her clinical condition worsened, and complication of the preexisting hydrosalpinx was suspected. Exploratory laparoscopy confirmed torsion of the fallopian tube. Left salpingectomy was performed. Histopathologic study confirmed a fallopian tube with hemorrhagic infarct.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>Torsion of the fallopian tube must be considered in the event of acute abdominal pain.
