description INTRODUCTION: Intrauterine devices are often accompanied by various complications, of which the uterine perforation constitutes the most dangerous one. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a case of a 41-year-old woman complaining of right upper quadrant pain. She had an intrauterine device inserted 12 years earlier without regular follow-up. Abdominal plain X-ray revealed the intrauterine device trans-located into the right subdiaphragmal area. Abdominal ultrasound showed gallbladder stones without any other sonographic pathologic finding. Patient underwent simultaneous laparoscopic cholecystectomy and removal of the intrauterine device from the right subdiaphragmal area. CONCLUSION: Laparoscopy is an appropriate method for removal of intrauterine device translocated to the right subdiaphragmatic region.
