| Résumé : |
The objective of this analysis was to identify intra-uterine devices (IUD) perforations detected from 12 to 60 months following IUD insertion, and to combine this information with data about perforations detected in the first 12 months to calculate cumulative perforation rates.
The incidence of uterine perforations in this study was low, although higher than the commonly reported rate. Approximately one third of perforations are detected 12 months after insertion. Clinical sequalae of perforations are generally mild and associated with a very low risk of injury to intra-abdominal and pelvic structures. |
