Abstract :
Background and Aims: Intrauterine Contraceptive Devices (IUD) have been commonly used method for birth
spacing in Asian countries. In the rural areas of India infrequently these IUDs are placed by trained multipurpose
health workers. We report a 30 years-old women with erroneously placed IUD, transurethrally into urinary
bladder which later on presented as vesicle calculus and it was removed endoscopically. To our knowledge for
presenting this misplacement, no such cases have been reported earlier in scientific literature.
