Abstract

Uterine perforation is a rare and one of the most serious complications following IUCD insertion. Here we are presenting a case of Cu IUCD perforation and expulsion though anus. This case emphasizes that ultrasonography is not enough for the investigation of missing IUCD thread. X-ray may be added to find out IUCD if no IUCD is visible in the uterine cavity.
