Who is this surgery for?
- Confirmed or suspected uterine perforation with migration of the IUCD into the abdominal cavity.
- Inability to locate or remove the IUCD via the cervical canal during a standard office procedure.
- Persistent pelvic or abdominal pain attributed to a migrated IUD.
- Evidence of the IUD causing injury, adhesion, or inflammation to surrounding organs like the bowel or bladder.
- Desire for future pregnancy where a retained foreign body could pose a risk.
- Recurrent pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) potentially linked to the displaced device.
How to prepare
- Diagnostic Confirmation: Undergo imaging tests like an ultrasound, X-ray, or CT scan to confirm the IUD's location outside the uterus.
- Medical Consultation: A thorough pre-operative assessment with the gynaecologist, including a review of medical history and current medications.
- Medication Review: Inform your doctor of all medications; you may need to temporarily stop blood thinners or supplements.
- Pre-operative Tests: Complete required blood tests, ECG, and possibly a chest X-ray to ensure fitness for anaesthesia.
- Fasting: Follow instructions for fasting (typically 6-8 hours for solids, 2 hours for clear liquids) before the surgery.
- Logistics: Arrange for someone to drive you home after discharge and to assist you for the first 24-48 hours.
Risks & possible complications
- Anaesthesia Risks: Reactions to anaesthetic drugs, though rare.
- Bleeding or Infection: At the incision sites or internally.
- Injury to Surrounding Organs: Potential, though uncommon, damage to the bowel, bladder, blood vessels, or uterus during retrieval.
- Conversion to Open Surgery: In complex cases, the procedure may need to be converted to a traditional laparotomy (open surgery).
- Post-operative Pain or Discomfort: Shoulder tip pain from gas used to inflate the abdomen is common but temporary.
- Adhesion Formation: Scar tissue can form inside the abdomen after any surgery.
- Incomplete Removal: Rarely, a fragment of the IUD may be left behind.
Recovery & hospital stay
- Immediate Post-Op: You will be monitored in a recovery area; you may experience grogginess, shoulder pain, or nausea from the anaesthesia.
- Incision Care: Keep the small incision sites clean and dry as instructed; they are often closed with dissolvable stitches or surgical glue.
- Pain Management: Prescribed pain medication will help manage discomfort, which typically subsides within a few days.
- Activity: Rest for the first 24-48 hours. Avoid heavy lifting, strenuous exercise, and sexual intercourse for 2-3 weeks as advised by your doctor.
- Diet: Start with light foods and gradually return to your normal diet. Drink plenty of fluids.
- Follow-up: Attend a post-operative appointment with your gynaecologist to ensure proper healing and discuss future contraception options.
- Warning Signs: Contact your doctor immediately for fever, severe pain, heavy vaginal bleeding, or redness/swelling at incision sites.
