Abstract
Nexplanon (R) is an etonogestrel implant with a long-acting contraceptive effect. Although several studies underlined its safety profile, its implant can rarely lead to moderate or severe adverse event. Here, we presented a case of delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction against Nexplanon (R) that resolved after its removal. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
