Case report: Bladder stone caused by dislocated Cu-IUD
In case of migrated IUD, a vaginal and abdominal ultrasound, X-rays, and computed tomography are useful tools for detecting dislocated IUDs. For the treatment physicians can choose a cystoscopic, laparoscopic, or abdominal approach based on the symptoms, the size of the stones, the IUD's location on the bladder wall, and their experience in laparoscopy and open surgery. If patients report dysuria after inserting of IUD a migrated IUD into the bladder should be taken into account.
