 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.

The incidence of transuterine perforation and migration of intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUCDs) into the abdominal cavity has been estimated at less than 0.1%. It has been suggested that intraperitoneal IUCD have low morbidity and may be left in situ. We report the first case of closed loop small bowel obstruction due to migration of a “Saf-T-Coil” IUCD into the abdominal cavity, where it became embedded in the omentum and ultimately, 31 years after deployment, coiled both arms around a loop of ileum. This late complication underlines the dangers of intra-abdominal foreign bodies, even when chemically and biologically inert.

Background. Intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUDs) are widely utilized all over the world owing to their low cost and high efficacy. Uterine perforation is a rare complication that may occur at IUD insertion resulting in extrauterine location of the IUD. Traditionally, surgical removal of dislocated IUDs has been recommended.Case. A 68-year-old patient who had an IUD (Lippes loop) inserted 32 years ago and whose routine examination incidentally revealed a dislocated IUD in the abdominal cavity. The patient remained asymptomatic during three years of follow-up and the IUD was left in place.Conclusion. Asymptomatic patients, whose vaginal examinations and ultrasonography or X-ray results reveal a dislocated IUD, may benefit from conservative management.

Secondary perforations of intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUCD) may be clinically silent. The patient may not report the missing threads due to a lack of acute symptoms or under the impression that the device could have been expelled. We present a case of a 42-year-old lady treated for renal cell carcinoma and presenting with recurrent right lower quadrant abdominal pain for 2 years. Ultrasound scans did not reveal any abnormality. A plain computed tomography (CT) revealed a migrated IUCD embedded in the omentum with adjacent inflammation. Although CT is not the modality of choice in the diagnosis of migrated IUCD, it proved helpful in diagnosing this case as history was not forthcoming. This case highlights the diagnostic dilemma faced in cases of silent IUCD migration presenting with pain abdomen. It is important to counsel the patient at the time of IUCD insertion for the early recognition of missing devices and prompt diagnosis of complications.

First Case

Spontaneous perforation is a very rare complication of pyometra. The clinical findings of perforated pyometra are similar to perforation of the gastrointestinal tract and other causes of acute abdomen. In most cases, a correct and definite diagnosis can be made only by laparotomy. We report two cases of diffuse peritonitis caused by spontaneous perforated pyometra. The first case is a 78-year-old woman with abdominal pain for which laparotomy was performed because of suspected incarcerated hernia. The second case is a 61-year-old woman with abdominal pain for which laparotomy was performed because of symptoms of peritonitis. At laparotomy of both cases, 1 liter of pus with the source of uterine was found in the abdominal cavity. The ruptured uterine is also detected. More investigations revealed no malignancy as the reason of the pyometra.

Summary. Objective of the study: to present to the surgical community a rather rare complication of severe destructive appendicitis – arrosive bleeding and the cause of its development. Material and methods. Published a rare clinical case from prac-tice — the development of perforation of the appendix and arrosive bleeding from the appendicular artery in a patient with acute gangrenous appendicitis. Results and its discussion. The atypical course of acute appendicitis of undulating nature under the mask of acute adnexitis and antibacterial therapy has led to a prolonged delay with surgery in the surgical department. Only the appendicular abscess, which spontaneously opened into the abdominal cavity, made it possible to diagnose acute appendicitis and determine indications for emergency surgery, during which arrosive bleeding was diagnosed. The favorable outcome of the disease is due to the local purulent-necrotic process and small hemoperitoneum. Findings. Timely diagnosis of acute appendicitis, with the involvement of additional research methods in unclear cases, and subsequent appendectomy, are the prevention of a rather rare complication — arrosive bleeding from the appendicular artery in the development of severe complicated forms of acute destructive appendicitis.

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.

Recent ultrastructural studies on endometrial tissues from women wearing copper, wire intrauterine devices have disclosed morphological evidence of impaired glycogen degradation and secretion resulting in interference with the viability of blastocysts. Reduced microapocrine secretion observed with the scanning electron microscope supports this (1). In addition, organelle modifications have been observed in the epithelial cells of these women. The changes are seen in biopsies taken in the proliferative phase of the cycle and consist of mitochondrial vacuolation and myelin figure formation. These modifications disappear in the secretory phase and therefore have been regarded as reversible (2).The aim of the present studies was to investigate surface epithelial changes as well as organelle modifications in relation to the site of contact with an IUD that releases greater amounts of copper. Endometrial tissue was obtained from the uterine cavity of four young women wearing TCu-380-A intrauterine contraceptive devices for 4-6 weeks.
