Abstract:
BACKGROUND:The Mirena levonorgestrel intrauterine system (IUS; Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals) is frequently used for menstrual suppression in adolescents with special needs. However, the presence of a uterine anomaly is generally considered a contraindication to IUS insertion, thereby excluding a potentially highly effective option for this patient population. CASE:A Mirena IUS was used in a medically and surgically complex special needs 14-year-old adolescent with a didelphys uterus and obstructed hemivagina. With the IUS inserted into the unobstructed uterus, she achieved amenorrhea and significant reduction in pain, with interval reduction in hematometra in the contralateral obstructed uterus. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION:We report the successful use of the Mirena IUS in a patient with a Müllerian anomaly, supporting the use of this device in carefully selected patients.
