Description

Sangam Jha and co-authors report cases of a migrated copper intrauterine device in a 2025 paper. Copper devices are effective, convenient long-term contraception, but in rare cases the device leaves the uterus. Two cases show how varied the signs can be.

One woman, pregnant with no device seen on scan, was found at surgery to have the device in tissue near the uterus with a pus collection. Another had months of belly pain and blood in urine, with the device inside the bladder on scan. The report reviews diagnostic routes for missing threads. Clinicians get a reminder to image, not assume expulsion.
