    Journal: J Gynecol Obstet Biol Reprod (Paris); 1999 May; 28(2):162-4. PubMed ID: 10416143.
    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: We report an uncommon case of a bladder lithiasis arising from an intrauterine device (i.u.d.). CASE REPORT: A female patient with i.u.d. for 13 years consulted for frequent episodes of cystitis. Patient evaluation demonstrated a bladder stone. RESULTS: Treatment was cystolithotomy, which dislodged two stones. One stone was attached to the IUD. CONCLUSION: Bladder calculus arising from an IUD is very rare. We review the literature.
