Case report of a 37-year-old Colombian patient seeking removal of a subdermal implant, initially believed to be the single-rod Nexplanon implant. However, following extraction, it was identified as the 2-rod international subdermal implant alternative, Jadelle. This case highlights the need for US health care providers to be cognizant of non-US subdermal alternatives given the rising presence of foreign-born patients they may encounter in their practice.
