ABSTRACT
During a 15-month period, CO2 hysteroscopy was carried out on 21 pregnant women wearing IUDs with retracted tails. Ultrasonography was done prior to hysteroscopy to determine the size of the gestational sac and the site of the device. Successful removal of the device occurred in 17 cases. The paper describes the technique, the findings of the study, and the limitations of the procedure.
