Ectopic location of Intrauterine Contraceptive Device (IUCD) or its migration from the normal position in the uterine fundus is a frequently encountered complication. It varies from uterine expulsion to displacement into the endometrial canal to uterine perforation or intravesical migration, which is an extremely rare case. Ultrasonography was used in the diagnoses of this reported case of an ectopic intravesical IUCD.
