dc.description.abstractPurpose: The study aim was to report an unusual case of a misplaced IUD in isthmico-cervical region causing partial uterine perforation and discuss literature data regarding such a condition. Case Report: A 50-year-old women was referred to the present institution for IUD extraction. She was diagnosed with spontaneously misplaced IUD located in isthmico-cervical region of the uterus causing partial perforation. The time of dislocation was unknown, as she was completely asymptomatic for ten years after IUD application. Moreover, she had no risk factors for device misplacement. The removal of IUD was uneventful. Conclusion: Isthmico-cervical misplacement of IUD, although rare, can occur at any time and can be asymptomatic. Thus, women with IUD should be annually checked-up in order to prevent possible IUD complications.
