Abstract

Intrauterine contraceptive devices (IUCDs) are a measure of temporary sterilization. Misplacement of IUCD is fairly common and most of these women remain asymptomatic. We report a clustered case series of misplaced, mal-positioned, and transmigrated IUCDs with serious complications and their management by minimally invasive surgery in a newly established medical school in North India.
