İntrauterin araçlar doğum kontrol yöntemi olarak sık kullanılmaktadır. Uterus perforasyonu ve intrauterin aracın yer değiştirmesi seyrek görülen ciddi bir komplikasyondur. Burada üretra taşı bulgusuyla başvuran hastada saptanan çift intraüterin araç vakası sunulmuştur.

Üretra taşı ile başvuran çift: İntrauterin araç

Intrauterine devices (IUDs) are widely used for reversible contraception. Perforation of the uterus and migration of the device into the retroperitoneal or abdominal cavity is a major but an infrequent complication. We present this report to highlight two interesting aspects of this case: One is that two IUDs were present simultaneously and second is that the patient presented with urethral stone after an asymptomatic period of 10 years.
