Abstract

This letter reports on a case in which a migrated intrauterine device (IUD) partially penetrated the bladder resulting in formation of a bladder stone and a peritoneal adhesion which was completely removed simply by gentle traction via laparoscopy. The authors state that this case shows that when trying to remove a migrated IUD with partial bladder penetration especially when most of the IUD is located in the peritoneal cavity laparoscopy is preferable to laparotomy.
