A rare manifestation of migrated intrauterine contraceptive device: a case study highlighting symptoms and ultrasound detection
Ultrasonography is a widely used and cost-effective imaging modality, but its effectiveness can be operator dependent. We present the case of a 29-year-old para 3A woman who experienced intermittent low abdominal pains and skin rash following the insertion of a copper-T intrauterine contraceptive de...

| description | Ultrasonography is a widely used and cost-effective imaging modality, but its effectiveness can be operator dependent. We present the case of a 29-year-old para 3A woman who experienced intermittent low abdominal pains and skin rash following the insertion of a copper-T intrauterine contraceptive device (IUCD). Ultrasound, performed by an experienced operator, was crucial in diagnosing a migrated IUCD with adnexal and skin complications. This case highlights the importance of skilled ultrasound operators in detecting migrated IUCDs and associated complications. |
