Mirena Questions

I've been told by friends that the Mirena IUD has to be surgically extracted when it comes time for removal. I've not done much research yet; just starting to compare IUDs. But is it true that surgery is required when you're ready to have the Mirena removed? Seems so extreme...

Edited: I'm glad to hear surgical removal is rare! Thanks.
