Abstract
We present a case of intraabdominal intrauterine device extracted by laparoscopy. A 28 years old Gravida 3 Parity one patient have presented to our outpatient clinic with the complaints of abdominal pain and fever. Her history revealed that she had an intrauterine device application a month after her previous delivery, and a few months later she had a molar pregnancy. She had dilatation curettage and revision curettage for molar pregnancy. A direct abdominal X-ray revealed a hyperechogenic mass at left lower renal pole, suggesting the dislocated intrauterine device. The lost intraabdominal intrauterine device removed with laparoscopy. The patient was discharged on the second day after the operation without any complication. Dislocated intrauterine devices may cause serious morbidity and mortality. Intraabdominal intrauterine devices should be managed carefully. Laparoscopic extraction is suggested even for asymptomatic cases.
