Ovarian torsion is one of the common abdominal and gynecologic surgical emergencies with serious morbidity in the form of ovarian infarct or necrosis. Various imaging modalities like USG, CT, and MRI have been used in the evaluation of ovarian torsion. Two middle-aged females presented with lower abdominal pain. Imaging showed an ovarian cystic lesion in the first patient and thickened and twisted ovarian pedicle or ‘helical swirling’sign in the second. Intraoperatively, the first case turned out to be a 180* twist with mild ovarian edema and the second showed more than 720* torsion with ovarian infarction. The CT findings of twisted pedicle with pericystic fat stranding might be predictive of hemorrhagic infarction in cases of torsion.
