Laparoscopy approach to sigmoid colon perforation secondary to intrauterine device migration

Abstract

Currently, the intrauterine device (IUD) is one of the most used contraceptive methods worldwide, since it has shown to be effective and reversible. One of its complications is the migration of the device, which can affect close organs by perforating them. We present the case of a patient who presented a colouterine fistula secondary to an IUD migration.
