Ovarian torsion is a common gynecological surgical emergency. It is usually associated with a cyst or a tumor, which is typically benign. The most common cause of ovarian torsion is mature cystic teratoma. We herein present an unusual case of torsion in the ovarian fibrothecoma. We report a case of ovarian torsion in a 47-year-old postmenopausal woman who came to the emergency department with acute abdominal pain. In this case report, we highlight Doppler ultrasonography and the magnetic resonance imaging features of ovarian torsion. She underwent an urgent surgery due to a torsion indicated. Total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oopherectomy was performed. The final pathologic diagnosis revealed torsion of left ovarian fibrothecoma.
