Abstract
HERNANDEZ CAMPO, Pedro Ricardo et al. Vesical lithiasis caused by Intra-uterine Device. A Case Report. Rev Ciencias Médicas [online]. 2009, vol.13, n.1, pp.71-76. ISSN 1561-3194.
The use of the intra-uterine device (IUD) is well-accepted by women, though early and late complications are diagnosed including the migration to other organs and the perforation of the uterus. Until year 2004 only 36 cases were reported in the medical literature, a case suffering from a marked dysuria after using the device was reported and it resulted in the formation of a great intra-vesical lithiasis.
Keywords : Bladder; intra-uterine device; vesical lithiasis.
