Misplaced Copper T intrauterine devices (CuT) in the abdominal cavity are a rare but serious complication of IUD use. The incidence of transuterine perforation and migration of intrauterine contraceptive devices into the abdominal cavity has been estimated at less than 0.1% (Junnare et al., 2020). This case involves a 27-year-old female who developed abdominal pain four months after CuT insertion. Imaging revealed a displaced CuT, likely due to uterine perforation during insertion. The patient underwent exploratory laparotomy for removal of the device, found near the bladder dome. This case underscores the importance of proper insertion technique, post-insertion follow-up, and early intervention to prevent complications such as organ damage or infection. Regular training for healthcare providers is essential to minimize such risks.
