  • Title: Bladder stones around a migrated and missed intrauterine contraceptive device.
    Author: Güvel S, Tekin MI, Kilinç F, Peskircioglu L, Ozkardeş H.
    Journal: Int J Urol; 2001 Feb; 8(2):78-9. PubMed ID: 11240830.
    Abstract:
    Bladder stones occasionally develop because of foreign bodies in the bladder. Bladder stones in a 30-year-old woman were found to have formed around an intrauterine contraceptive device that had gone missing many years previously and had migrated into the bladder. Plain abdominal radiograms should be a part of the evaluation in patients with a history of an unretrieved intrauterine contraceptive device.
