Vesicouterine fistula with menouria: a complication from an intrauterine contraceptive device.

We report a case of a vesicouterine fistula with menouria (vesical menstruation) secondary to an intrauterine contraceptive device. Of the 23 cases of menouria reported previously 21 occurred after cesarean section, 1 was secondary to a traumatic forceps delivery and 1 was owing to infection. In our case the fistula did not close after removal of the perforated intrauterine contraceptive device and 2 months of catheter drainage. Closure was achieved by excision of the fistula and hysterectomy.
