Abstract

Foreign bodies in the genital tract are reported more commonly in women. Symptoms are not specific. In our report a child consulting for chronic pelvic pain, was diagnosed with intrauterine foreign body and managed successfully. Early diagnosis and emergent treatment may avoid serious complications. Removal under scope control is a safe therapeutic way.
