Abstract:

Background: To present experience with clinical presentation, diagnosis and minimally invasive removal of migrated intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD). Methods: A total of 6 patients were included in retrospective study. Diagnosis was based on clinical presentation, TVS and Abdominopelvic X- ray. Minimally invasive approach was utilized to remove migrated IUD. Results: The mean (range) age of the patient was 36.6 (26-55) years. The mean (range) of parity was 3.5 (2-6). The mean (range) duration of IUD use was 8.1 (3-25) years. Five patients had TCu380A IUD. One patient had Lippes loop type of IUD. Three patients underwent laparoscopy, two had hysteroscopy and one had cystoscopy, for removal of IUD. The mean (range) operative time was 40.8 (18-76) mins. No anesthesia or surgery related complications were observed intraoperatively. The mean (range) duration of hospital stay was 34 (24-48) hours. The postoperative course was uneventful and all the patients were followed for 3-6 months period of time with no complaints. Conclusion: Removal of migrated IUDs is recommended in symptomatic and asymptomatic patients using minimally invasive approach. [Int J Reprod Contracept Obstet Gynecol 2013; 2(2.000): 147-151]
