Abstract
|
|
|
The migration of an intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD) into the intraabdominal cavity is rare. However, the removal of such as IUD is recommended for the major reason of an intraabdominal inflammatory reaction and possible bowel obstruction
or
perforation. We report a case of migration of an IUD into the intraabdominal cavity, which was detected twenty-four years after insertion. The IUD was successfully removed by using laparoscopic surgery on an ambulatory basis.
