Abstract

We analyze the clinical case of a female patient presenting recurrent episodes of cystitis (pain, mictional ardor). We made a urine test showing microhematuria, a negative urine culture and vesical echography visualizing an echogenic image emitting an acoustic shadow and do not change when changing position. The cytoscopy shows a vesical lithiasis adhered to a cooper T; the Simple Urinary Tract shows the presence of a free anticonceptive device in abdominal cavity at the level of the left side and an image of calcic density in projection of the lower median region of the abdomen in contact with the cooper T. We could remove the calculus and the intrauterine device by endoscopic cystolithotomy without complications. We present this case because of the infrequentness of this pathology.
