ABSTRACT
An Intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUCD) is commonly inserted by the primary health care physician. It can migrate into pelvic or abdominal organs. When a pregnancy occurs following an insertion of an IUCD, there should be a high suspicion of uterine perforation or possible migration. A radiograph can be done in the primary health care clinic to search for a missing IUCD. Early referral to the urology service is warranted when a patient presents with recurrent urinary tract infections. Removal of an intravesical IUCD can be managed with cystoscopy, laparoscopy or open surgery. Herein, we report a case of IUCD migration into the bladder. This case will highlight the importance of proper technique, careful insertion and the role of ultrasound.
