Özet

Intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUDs) are frequently used for birth control. Side-effects such as vaginal bleeding and localized pelvic pain are most common, and uterine perforation and migration of the adjacent organs are rare, but serious, complications. Herein we present the case of a 46-year-old woman who had a bladder stone because of an IUD that had migrated to the bladder and encrusted.
