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.

避孕植入物移位到肺部。
本病例报告详细介绍了一名年轻女性避孕植入物移位的罕见病例。植入避孕环三年后,在一次常规置换检查中发现了植入物移位。尽管没有肺部症状,但 CT 扫描发现植入物位于右肺下叶。患者被转诊接受进一步评估,但立即进行手术取出的时间被推迟。本病例报告强调了医疗服务提供者认识到植入过程中发生移位这种罕见并发症的重要性,并建议将自我检查作为一种潜在的预防策略。
