Abstract:

We report a case of uterine perforation at the time of insertion of a Levonogestrel Intrauterine System(LNG-IUS).A chest/abdominal X-Rays were requested some weeks later and the IUCD was identified in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen.The dilemma was then what was the appropriate management of this translocated LNG-IUS as the patient was asymptomatic and she had become amenorrhoeic which was one of the original reasons why she chose this method.

Keywords:

Translocated intrauterine contraceptive device; Levonogestrel intrauterine system
