Copper Intrauterine Device

<p>Intrauterine device is one of the most preferred contraceptive methods. Rare complications such as uterine perforation were getting more common due to increased use of intrauterine device and could be seen either with mild manifestations or serious cases like bladder or intestinal damage. <br />A 48-year-old patient who is consulted to our clinic because of a missed copper intrauterine device was presented. The intrauterine device was inserted 28 years ago, detected in pelvis incidentally by x-ray and extracted via laparotomy. Although device has been in abdomen for nearly three decades, we did not see any serious reaction or adhesion during surgery.<br />Management of a patient with intrauterine device should be done carefully and following the instructions before insertion, regular examination at every visit are important.</p>

Introduction The intrauterine device is a planning method widely used in the world, however, it is not without complications, one of these is uterine perforation and migration of the IUD to the abdominal cavity, which although it is rare, has serious clinical repercussions and its study has been studied. relationship with the adequate or not insertion of the device, the size and configuration of the uterus, uterine anomalies or surgeries and the moment of insertion after delivery. Case report We present the case of a 36-year-old female patient with a 12-hour history of pain in the mesogastrium that radiates to the right iliac fossa of 9/10 weight intensity, associated with fever measured at 38.9º. He underwent diagnostic laparoscopy with a finding of acute appendicitis secondary to lumen obstruction by the IUD, so an appendectomy was performed. Conclusions The appropriate treatment when this complication occurs is surgical extraction either laparoscopically or laparotomy to reduce the risk of associated complications.

Introduction. The last decade of the usage of intrauterine contraception has been marked by the application of levonorgestrel-releasing hormonal devices. A hormonal intrauterine device (IUD) releases a certain amount of progestogen, whose effect on endometrium is such that, apart from preventing unwanted pregnancy, also regulates the menstrual bleeding by reducing the quantity and the duration of haemorrhage. This effect of hormonal IUDs has led to their additional indications and use, so that nowadays these IUDs are used not only as contraceptives but for therapeutic purposes as well. Case Outline. After examination and treatment in an out-patient department, a 38-year-old woman was referred to our hospital due to suspected spontaneous uterine perforation caused by hormonal IUD (Mirena?) one month after its application. Clinical and sonographic examinations were unable to determine the uterine perforation or the exact IUD location. Radiographic examination confirmed the presence of the IUD in the abdomen, so it was decided to operate on the patient. Perforation in the isthmus of the uterus and to the right was identified intraoperatively. By exploration of the genital organs and the abdominal cavity, the IUD was finally located in the omentum. Conclusion. Even in cases of adequate indications for hormonal IUD application, the doctor?s experience and complying with all the principles of appropriate insertion, we should always consider the possibility of the occurrence of serious complications, which sometimes may even require surgery. The extragenital position of IUD, as in this case, may create serious difficulties in the detection of location. A possible development of asymptomatic complications additionally emphasizes the necessity of regular check-ups of all IUD users.

History Of

Intrauterine devices (IUDs) are the commonest form of contraceptive method in use globally. IUDs like other methods of contraception may be associated with its own complications. The major risk includes uterine perforation with embedment, migration, and/or expulsion. A 35 year old female who had a history of postpartum IUD insertion 10 years ago was referred to our institute with complains of severe lower abdominal pain and vomiting since 10 days. Transabdominal and transvaginal ultrasound (TAS/TVS) were done. Ultrasound led to the final diagnosis of ovarian embedment of the IUD. Laparotomy with IUD removal was successfully performed. This case report highlights one of the rare complications of IUD migrating to the left ovary in a patient presenting with lower abdominal pain. In a patient with history an IUD insertion in situ, lower abdominal pain and missing threads on examination should wary the gynaecologist to the possibility of total or partial transmigration of the device into the pelvis or abdomen.
