Abstract EN
The presence of an intrauterine device (IUD) within the colon is rare.
Complications have been reported with IUDs among which uterine perforation.
Translocation of IUDs to the uterine cavity, to the bladder and also through the wall of the bowel, and sigmoid colon has been reported.
We believe there may be a case that surgeons should know the result of despite being a priori gynaecological complication.
This paper reports on a case of colon perforation by an IUD.
