Intravesical Migration of Intrauterine Device: A Report of Cases of Total and Partial Migration
Journal Title: HASEKİ TIP BÜLTENİ - Year 2018, Vol 56, Issue 4
Abstract
Intrauterine devices (IUD) are the commonly used long-acting, reversible and effective method of contraception. Migration of IUD into the bladder via uterine perforation is a very rare complication. In this paper, we aimed to present two different cases with different migration steps. In the first case, IUD was petrified and completely migrated into the bladder wall; in the second case, IUD was hanged on to the bladder wall.
