Migrated Intra-uterine Contraceptive Device: The Need for Proper Counselling
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 8
Abstract
The migration of IUCD into the bladder has been reported in several literatures1,2. This sometimes occurs at the time of insertion when the uterus is perforated, but may also occur by erosion into uterus and bladder following insertion1 . The device is a common method of contraception in the developing world due to its low cost, efficacy and availability3 . We present the case report of a 40 year old infertile female who had an unconsented forgotten intra-uterine copper-T contraceptive device that migrated into the bladder.
