Abstract
|
|
|
An intrauterine device (IUD) is one of the most commonly used contraceptive method in the world. One of the major complications of intrauterine contraception is the perforation through the uterine wall into the pelvic or abdominal cavity. The incidence is 0.9 people per 1000. However, bladder perforation is even more rare. It happens mostly at the time when it was inserted. The symptom varies from no symptom at all to low abdominal pain, massive bleeding, et cetera. We report a case with displaced intrauterine device in bladder, producing the bladder stone which was managed with cystoscopic lithotripsy and intrauterine device removal, followed by a review of the literature.
