Abstract
CAMPOHERMOSO RODRIGUEZ¹, Omar Félix; MAMANI QUISPE, RosmeryAida and SOLIZ SOLIZ³, Ruddy. Translocación de dispositivo intrauterino. Reporte de un caso. Cuad. - Hosp. Clín. [online]. 2015, vol.56, n.2, pp.49-54. ISSN 1562-6776.
Translocation of an intrauterine device (IUD), is slightly frequent, affecting neighboring organs like the rectal sigmoid, bladder and ovaries. After uterine perforation, because of IUD migration, immediate removal of the abdominal cavity is justified. We present a case of a 38 year-old woman who had a partial perforation by an intrauterine device causing pelvic pain.
Keywords : translocation; intruterine device (IVD); cooper "T".
