From Contraception to Calculus: An Unusual Case of Intrauterine Contraceptive Device (IUCD) Migration to the Bladder,...

Uterine perforations caused by intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUCDs) have been rarely documented in medical literature. However, the migration of these devices into the bladder (intravesical migration), resulting in calculus formation, is an exceptionally uncommon occurrence. When intravesical migration happens, the IUCD may be found lodged in the bladder. In this particular case, the presence of the IUCD was detected within the bladder in the form of calculus, notably without adhering or embedding in the bladder walls. Despite being inserted nine years prior, the patient underwent seven normal deliveries without complications and remained asymptomatic concerning urinary issues until the last two years before presentation. The calculus was successfully removed from the urinary bladder via a laparotomy performed by gynecologists. This case underscores the essential role of radiological investigations and regular follow-ups in patients who report conception after IUCD insertion, as they aid in confirming the potential migration of the device and facilitate timely intervention for removal.
