Abstract

This is a case of a housewife from Erbil city in northern Iraq. It highlights one of the rare complication of inserting a coil for contraception. Coil perforation and migration is a recognized complication. The overall incidence of perforation is 0.4/1000 solid devices. The presenting symptoms are very variable and can be very minimal indeed. Radiological methods can help to confirm the diagnosis and also to plan treatment. While few advocate laparoscopic surgery to retrieve the lost coil, most think that laparotomy is the best approach to achieve effective removal of the migrated coil.
