Abstract

Intravesical migration of intrauterine device (IUD) is a rare complication. We report a case of IUD that migrated into the bladder of a 31-year-old woman who had it for four years, and presented with irritative bladder symptoms following a miscarriage. The diagnosis was first suspected by an ultrasound and confirmed by cystoscopy. Treatment consisted by removing the IUD endoscopically. This case shows the importance of following the medical instructions for the placement of an intrauterine device, and regularly verifying its localization in order to reduce the incidence of uterine perforation and extra-uterine migration.
