“…The intra-uterine contraceptive device (IUCD) is widely recognized as an effective and reliable method of long-term contraception for family planning purposes. However, it is important to acknowledge that complications can arise from the use of these devices, including spontaneous or septic abortion, migration into nearby structures, bowel perforation, and the formation of vesicouterine stulas [2].…”

Background As widely known, an intrauterine device (IUD) is a small, typically T-shaped contraceptive device that offers long-term reversible birth control. However, neglecting to remove the IUD can lead to severe complications. This case report showcases an exceptional instance that underscores the potential risks associated with retention of an IUD. Case Presentation This case report documents a 40-year-old female who failed to remove her intrauterine device for eight years. Upon her visit to our clinic, she presented with increased urinary frequency, burning micturition, dysuria, and discomfort while emptying her bladder. Medical review consisting of ultrasound (KUB) and X-ray pelvis revealed the intrauterine device had migrated and was encrusted with a stone. We used Holmium laser lithotripsy to break down the stone, before using cystoscope to manually remove the intrauterine device. She made a rapid recovery without any complications. Conclusions In order to raise awareness about forgotten or misplaced IUDs and their complications, we are presenting a case of complete intravesical IUD migration at our clinic. This serves as an educational opportunity to shed light on this uncommon occurrence and emphasize the importance of timely removal and follow-up in patients using intrauterine devices (IUDs).

“…In cases of failed cystoscopy, surgery should be considered. In the literature, most of the reported cases were treated with laparoscopic and open surgical procedures [ 2–4 , 7 , 8 , 11 , 13 , 14 ]. Only a few rare cases reported in which cystoscopy was performed to remove the IUD [ 5 , 6 ].…”

“…Potential complications due to a residual IUD in the bladder wall can range from asymptomatic to variable symptoms such as fever, malaise, nausea, abdominal pain, dysuria, urinary urgency, hematuria, cloudy urine, inflammatory reaction with fibrosis and granulation tissue formation, abscess, bladder perforation, cellular dysplasia and possible tumor formation, or possible adhesions of surrounding bowel loops [ 3 , 4 , 7 , 8 , 12 , 14 ]. Routine examination with urinalysis and abdominal ultrasound can help detect these complications [ 6 , 9 , 13 , 14 ].…”

In the realm of unusual gynecological complications, the displacement of an intrauterine device (IUD) into the bladder, resulting in stone formation, stands out as an exceptionally rare and perplexing condition. Such occurrences challenge diagnostic and therapeutic protocols, often leading to unique case studies that expand our understanding of IUD-related complications. We present an interesting case of a 50-year-old woman with a stone-forming ectopic IUD in the bladder diagnosed with imaging modalities and treated with cystoscopy, with a subsequent resolution of symptoms. This case underscores the importance of considering ectopic IUD placement in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with urinary symptoms and a history of IUD use. Moreover, it emphasizes the role of imaging in the accurate diagnosis of such cases and highlights cystoscopy as an effective treatment modality for the removal of IUD and stones.
