Forgotten Lippes Loupe Accidental diagnosis for pain evaluation
Journal Title: The Indian Practitioner - Year 2016, Vol 69, Issue 11
Abstract
Background: The intrauterine device (IUD) is the most commonly used contraceptive method in the world. Case: We report here a case of 64 year old female who was totally unaware of IUCD insertion done 40 years back until she was evaluated for pain abdomen. Result: Her post-operative period was normal. Conclusion: Ultrasound can guide the location and help in removal of IUCD but hysteroscopy is the gold standard in managing missed IUCD.
