ERUM FATIMA
Keywords:
ovarian apoplexy, acute pain, surgical therapyAbstract
Acute abdominal pain should always be evaluated quickly and accurately due to
the possibility of urgent surgical intervention. We report a case of a woman with
ovarian apoplexy while taking Clofit Citrate. The patient developed acute abdominal
pain after coitus. The patient was diagnosed ovarian apoplexy with ovarian cyst using
pelvic ultrasound. The main differential diagnosis of ovarian apoplexy in women of
reproductive age is ectopic pregnancy and ovarian cyst torsion. In this article, we
describe a rare case of ovarian apoplexy while taking the drug.
