<b>Introduction:</b> Ovarian torsion is a rare gynecological emergency that can result in permanent ovarian loss if not promptly recognized and managed. Cases involving multiple rotations of the ovary are highly unusual and pose a significant risk for ovarian viability. <b>Clinical Description:</b> A 33-year-old P2 woman presented with sudden severe lower abdominal pain. Imaging showed a complex midline adnexal mass, more towards left and mild free fluid with suspected torsion. Emergency laparotomy showed a sixfold torsion of the right ovary with a dermoid cyst. Detorsion and cystectomy were performed with preservation of the ovary. Postoperative recovery was uneventful and histopathology further confirmed a benign dermoid cyst. <b>Discussion:</b> Ovarian torsion with multiple rotations is extremely rare so early recognition and timely surgical intervention enable ovarian salvage even in severe cases. Moreover, Dermoid cysts are the most common predisposing factor. <b>Conclusion:</b> This case highlights the importance of prompt diagnosis and immediate management of ovarian torsion to prevent complications, preserve ovarian integrity and fertility.
