Postplacental intra-abdominal placement of levonorgestrel 52mg intrauterine system: a case report. Contraception Peterson, S. F., Henkel, A., Ganti, A., Blumenthal, P. D. 2020Abstract

Ultrasound guidance can be considered if fundal placement is uncertain. Short interval follow up should be recommended to confirm proper placement.
