Abstract
The use of an Intrauterine Device (IUD) is the most economical form of contraception in the world, but it has some complications. Intra-vesical migration of IUD and the formation of stones are a rare complication. It can cause symptoms of the lower urinary tract. Imaging is crucial for diagnosis. Endourological management is the preferred option because the success rate is high with minimal morbidity. We present the management of two cases of intrauterine device migration forming an intra-vesical calculus with dysuria, suprapubic pain and hematuria.
