OBJECTIVE: To explore the value of hysteroscope and laparoscope in removing an incarcerated or ectopic intrauterine device (IUD).
METHODS: A 33-year-old woman was admitted to the present hospital on May 22nd, 2013. An incarcerated IUD was proven by ultrasonography. An IUD had been implanted in October 2011. Clinical case report of an incarcerated IUD in the sigmoid colon.
RESULTS: An IUD was successfully removed with the assistance of hysteroscope and laparoscope.
CONCLUSIONS: Ultrasonography should be performed in the follow-up of the patients after IUD implantation. Ectopic or incarcerated IUD can be successfully removed with the assistance of hysteroscope and laparoscope with minimal trauma.

Vaginal bleeding in prepuberty is an alarming symptom that must be carefully investigated. Among quite common causes of genital sanguineous discharge, there are rarer conditions responsible for bleeding at this age like Mullerian papilloma of the genital tract. In this report, we describe a case of Mullerian papilloma of the vagina in a 9-year-old girl. We believe in the importance of a correct clinical setting and histological definition to avoid wrong diagnosis and consequent inadequate treatments. Mullerian papilloma, a benign tumor, can in fact be treated only with local excision.
