A curious case of missing couplet IUCDs

ABSTRACT

Intrauterine contraceptive device (IUCD) is one of the most widely used family planning methods. Although considered to be generally safe, it can be associated with problems such as missing IUCD. There have been many reports of isolated missing IUCD but reports of two missing IUCDs in the same patient are very rare. We report the case of a 35-year-old lady with such an occurrence that was diagnosed incidentally on a routine kidney, ureter and bladder (KUB) radiography.
