Abstract
Intravesical migration of an intrauterine device (IUD) is an uncommon complication. We report here a case of IUD migration into the bladder in a 41-year-old patient who had been wearing an IUD for 3 years and who initially consulted us because of urinary burning and pollakiuria associated with episodes of haematuria. The diagnosis of intra-vesical migration was made by ultrasound and confirmed by cystoscopy. Endoscopic extraction of the IUD was performed successfully. Post-operative management was straightforward.
