The intrauterine device (IUD) is a very commonly used contraceptive method among fertile women due to its high efficacy and safety. A very rare complication is uterus perforation and migration to the abdominal cavity, with injury of structures nearby. In this work three cases are reported with different organ involvement and a review of uterus perforation is made.

The aim: demonstration of our experience of surgical treatment of patients with migrated intrauterine device (IUD) into the abdominal cavity. The results of surgical treatment of migrated IUDs in the pelvic cavity are summarized in 17 women. The average age of the patients was 33,23,4 years. The timing of implantation of the IUDs varied from 10 days to 24 months. In all cases, the intra operational finding was T-shaped a copper device. The reason behind the women's consultation was an increase in pain syndrome in the lesser pelvis (n=15), dysuric phenomenon (n=1) and the onset of pregnancy (n=1). Perforation of the uterus and migration of the spiral occurred from 10 days to 2 years after its implantation. All patients were operated laparoscopicaly. The average duration of operations was 45,510,5 minutes. In the postoperative period there were no complications from the pelvic organs and postoperative wounds. The period of hospitalization of patients was 3,50,7 days. In all cases there was a regression of clinical signs and recovery. In one pregnant patient (gestation period 5-6 weeks) the pregnancy proceeded without particular pathological abnormalities and resulted in the birth of a full-term child. Laparoscopic removal of the IUD migrating from the uterine cavity to the abdominal cavity is the method of choice in the treatment of this group of patients, avoiding development of intra- and postoperative complications and a shorter length of stay in the hospital. The effectiveness of the procedure reaches 100%. The most common cause of complication of the IUD is the perforation of the uterus during its implantation.

Background: Intrauterine device is one of the most effective methods of contraception which in addition to many advantages also has its disadvantages. It can pass through the wall of the uterus and migrate into any tissue in the abdominal cavity. Since dislocation may be unrecognized for several years, re-examination after IUD insertion is necessary.Patients and methods: This article shows an example of a 72-year old patient with an accidentally discovered dislocated Lippes Loop IUD in the abdominal cavity. By the help of X-ray (RTG) and computed tomography (CT) we have determined its position and successfully removed it after 42 years.Conclusions: Migration and dislocation of an IUD is a rare complication and often completely asymptomatic. In order to avoid serious complications, it is necessary to re- examine patients regularly after insertion. An onset of pain certainly calls for the multidisciplinary approach in which a specialist of family medicine has the central role.

 Intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUCDs) is one of the most commonly used in Bhutan. IUCDs are effective, safe, cheap, and has minimal systemic side effects. One of the major but rare complications is perforation of uterus and migration into pelvic and abdominal cavity and organs. Migrating into urinary balder is a rare complication. We report the first case of bladder stone secondary to migrating Copper T in a 50-year-old female who presented to the surgical department of Jigme Dorji Dorji Wangchuck National Referral Hospital.

Intrauterine devices are a popular form of reversible contraception among women. Its administration can lead to some uncommon but serious complications such as perforation leading to its migration into adjacent organs. Like any foreign body, the presence of an IUD in the bladder can result in stone formation due to its lithogenic potential. We report a case of an IUD migrating from its normal position in the uterine cavity into the urinary bladder causing chronic low urinary tract symptoms in a 43-year-old female patient. The device was securely removed without complications using grasping forceps under cystoscopy, and no parietal defect was detected. A mislocated IUD is a rare complication that should be considered in female patients presenting with chronic urinary symptoms.

Intrauterine device (IUD) is one of the frequently used contraceptive methods in the developing countries, due to its high efficacy, low risks and low costs. However, it may cause some important complications. One of these complications is migration of IUD to adjacent organs. The migration of IUDs to sigmoid colon is rare and it is reported as case reports. In this article, we wanted to share the colonoscopic evaluation of a 38-year-old female patient who presented with chronic abdominal pain, meanwhile the detection of IUD in the sigmoid colon and its removal with colonoscopy.Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.16(4) 2017 p.597-599

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.

IUD migration is a rare complication. We report our experience in the treatment of five cases of uterine perforation and migration of IUDs. The average age of patients was 34.6 years, an average parity was 4. All patients felt an unusual pain during insertion of the IUD Tcu 380A. The location of the IUD was done through ultrasound and hysterography. Removal by laparoscopy was performed in all cases. The immediate impacts of the surgery were simple. Hysterography has its place in the location of the migrated IUD. Prevention is a good IUD insertion technique.

We present a case of combined celiac axis and superior mesenteric artery embolism in a 70-year-old patient that was examined in emergency department for atrial fibrillation and diffuse abdominal pain. Standard abdominal x-ray showed air in the portal vein. CT scan with contrast showed air in the lumen of the stomach and small intestine, bowel distension with wall thickening, and a free gallstone in the abdominal cavity. Massive embolism of both celiac axis and superior mesenteric artery was seen after contrast administration. On laparotomy, complete necrosis of the liver, spleen, stomach and small intestine was found. Gallbladder was gangrenous and perforated, and the gallstone had migrated into the abdominal cavity. We found free air that crackled on palpation of the veins of the gastric surface. The patient’s condition was incurable and she died of multiple organ failure a few hours after surgery. Acute visceral thromboembolism should always be excluded first if a combination of atrial fibrillation and abdominal pain exists. Determining the serum levels of d-dimers and lactate, combined with CT scan with contrast administration can, in most cases, confirm the diagnosis and lead to faster surgical intervention. It is crucial to act early on clinical suspicion and not to wait for the development of hard evidence.
