Levonorgestrel 52-mg intrauterine device fixation using a hysteroscopic special steel needle surgical system for the treatment of adenomyosis with uterine septum: a case report

Listen to this summary

The authors investigate a new surgical technique for fixing a levonorgestrel 52-mg intrauterine device (IUD) in patients with adenomyosis and a uterine septum. They report a successful application of this method in a 43-year-old patient, highlighting its feasibility and potential to assist those with previous IUD detachment. This case provides insights for managing IUD placement in individuals with uterine septum.
