Abstract
We experienced a case of hemorrhagic infarction of the ovarian fibroma and that indicated the characteristic following appearance: exhibiting a high signal intensity area observed at the periphery of mass on T1-weighted MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). It was thought that this appearance developed because hemorrhagic infarction was caused by subacute ovarian torsion. This is a useful finding for suspecting hemorrhagic infarction preoperatively.
