ABSTRACT

Uterine torsion is an exceedingly rare obstetric emergency representing pelvic organ torsion, characterized by the uterus rotating more than 45 degrees around the longitudinal axis. This torsion predominantly occurs at the junction of the cervix and uterine corpus. Albeit the infrequent prevalence, this condition can arise in any reproductive group. Oligohydramnios is defined as an amniotic fluid volume of 2 cm or less in the single deepest vertical pocket. During pregnancy, uterine torsion is known to be associated with severe maternal and perinatal consequences encompassing placental abruption, maternal mortality, and intrauterine fetal demise. Here, we present a specific case of a woman who experienced uterine torsion during pregnancy, leading to complications such as uteroplacental and fetoplacental insufficiency, severe fetal growth restriction, and persistent oligohydramnios throughout the pregnancy.
