Abstract
A 13-year-old female adolescent presented with pelvic pain localized in the right lower abdominal quadrant with diffusion to the groin and internal thigh and worsened by marked leg abduction. No symptoms were detected on physical or sonography examination. The patient reported pain for a further 4 months with no moderation. A laparoscopy was performed, which showed normal adnexa and pelvic hollow. No adhesions were found. The uterus was normal in size and appearance, but the right round ligament presented with a partial detachment at cornual insertion. An inflammation was present. The decision was made to perform no surgical repair with the belief that pain would worsen. The pain gradually lessened, and in 1998 she remains pain free.
