Event Description
This spontaneous case was reported by a lawyer and describes the occurrence of device dislocation ('essure dislocated (near to perfurate her internal organs)') and device breakage ('essure fragmentation') in a (b)(6) female patient who had essure inserted for contraception.The occurrence of additional non-serious events is detailed below.The patient's medical history included parity 2 (2 gestations).Concomitant products included medroxyprogesterone acetate (demedrox) since 2016.In 2014, the patient had essure inserted.In 2014, the patient experienced abdominal pain lower ("pain like cramps in the lower abdomen") and procedural pain ("left hospital with lower abdominal pain").In 2017, the patient experienced headache ("cephalea"), pain in extremity ("pre-menstrual lower limbs pain"), back pain ("lumbar pain"), menorrhagia ("menstrual flow increased with clots"), polymenorrhoea ("menstrual frequency increased"), dysmenorrhoea ("intense pain during menstrual cycle"), dyspareunia ("intense pain during sexual intercourse"), depression ("depressive condition") with anxiety, pain nos ("pain like twinge"), breast pain ("mastalgia"), abdominal distension ("distention nos"), oedema ("edema nos"), hypoaesthesia ("numbness nos"), peripheral swelling ("legs swelling"), tremor ("tremors"), pelvic pain ("pelvic pain"), feeling abnormal ("sensation of uterine perforation"), fatigue ("fatigue"), loss of libido ("loss of libido"), coital bleeding ("bleeding during and after sexual intercourse"), uterine inflammation ("uterine inflammation"), arthralgia ("joint pain"), mood altered ("mood change"), alopecia ("hair loss"), adenomyosis ("suspicion of adenomyosis"), intra-abdominal fluid collection ("liquid in abdomen"), general body pain ("generalized pain") and vaginal discharge ("vaginal secretion with odor").On an unknown date, the patient experienced device dislocation (seriousness criterion medically significant) and device breakage (seriousness criterion medically significant).The patient was treated with analgesics and antiinflammatory agents.Essure treatment was ongoing at the time of the report.At the time of the report, the device dislocation, device breakage, headache, pain in extremity, back pain, menorrhagia, polymenorrhoea, abdominal pain lower, dysmenorrhoea, dyspareunia, depression, pain nos, breast pain, abdominal distension, oedema, hypoaesthesia, peripheral swelling, tremor, pelvic pain, feeling abnormal, fatigue, loss of libido, coital bleeding, uterine inflammation, arthralgia, mood altered, alopecia, adenomyosis, intra-abdominal fluid collection, general body pain and vaginal discharge had not resolved and the procedural pain outcome was unknown.The reporter considered abdominal distension, abdominal pain lower, adenomyosis, alopecia, arthralgia, back pain, breast pain, coital bleeding, depression, device breakage, device dislocation, dysmenorrhoea, dyspareunia, fatigue, feeling abnormal, headache, hypoaesthesia, intra-abdominal fluid collection, loss of libido, menorrhagia, mood altered, oedema, pain in extremity, pain nos, pelvic pain, peripheral swelling, polymenorrhoea, procedural pain, tremor, uterine inflammation, vaginal discharge and general body pain to be related to essure.The reporter commented: after the insertion of essure, consumer presented lower abdominal cramps and she was medicated with analgesics and antiinflammatory nos.She presented improvement after some days.In 2017, besides of the lower abdominal pain, she also started presenting pain during the menstrual cycle.Due to it, she went to the hospital sometimes (outpatient) and received antiinflammatory and analgesic drugs, with partial improvement.Diagnostic results (normal ranges are provided in parenthesis if available): x-ray - on an unknown date: essure dislocated, in eminence of to perforate the internal organs.Essure fragmented in several parts.
