Abstract:
This case report details a rare case of contraceptive implant migration in a young woman. The migration was discovered three years post-insertion during a routine replacement visit. Despite the absence of pulmonary symptoms, a CT scan revealed the implant in the inferior lobe of the right lung. The patient was referred for further evaluation, but immediate surgical removal was deferred. This case report highlights the importance of healthcare providers recognising migration as a rare complication during implantation and suggests self-examination as a potential preventive strategy.

此病例报告详细介绍了一名年轻女性中避孕植入物迁移的罕见病例。迁移是在例行替换访问期间插入后三年发现的。尽管没有肺部症状,CT扫描显示植入物位于右肺下叶。患者被转介接受进一步评估,但立即手术切除被推迟。此病例报告强调了医疗保健提供者认识到迁移是植入过程中罕见的并发症的重要性,并建议自我检查作为潜在的预防策略。
