[IUD-deformation and unusual complications of intrauterine contraception]

Deformations of intrauterine contraceptive devices in the uterine cavity and their consequences are reported. In a period of 16 years we observed two partial perforations and two tuboovarian abscesses with this method of contraception in 3753 women. The value of IUD as a contraceptive of the second range is not degraded by these rare complications.
