Myiasis in man is discussed, with case reports and special emphasis on hypoderma myiasis. Sparse contributions in dermatological literature has prompted this report on patients with prominent skin manifestations. Value of systemic therapy is questioned, since most cases are self-limiting and cause little disability in uncomplicated cases.

AbstractA series of 14 cases of aural myiasis is reported. In no case unassociated with otitis media was perforation in the tympanic membrane seen. Local treatment with turpentine oil or ether was prescribed.Myiasis may be defined as infection of vertebrates with the larvae (maggots) ofDiptera flieswhich feed on the tissues of the host.

In North America, until recently, all cases of anuran myiasis were attributed to Lucilia silvarum (Meigen) or Lucilia elongata Shannon. The latter species is exceedingly rare and its life history is unknown, but L.

Cutaneous myiasis is a unique disease, endemic in tropical areas, and uncommon in the Western world, making its diagnosis difficult for physicians that are unfamiliar with the disease process. Larvae of a two-winged fly are inoculated through normal skin by a mosquito bite.

I would like to correct some of the impressions left by the report of a case of myiasis in the July 1979 issue of Pediatrics.1 In the first place, the authors' statement that there have been no recent reports is not altogether true, as a few minutes in the library soon turned some up,2,3 with a very clear account by Jeliffe,4 for example, and, indeed ...

Human myiasis results from parasitic tissue infestation by maggots. It often develops in open or necrotic wounds and has its highest prevalence among poor populations in tropical regions. This study reports 2 cases of human myiasis in the oral cavity and describes its clinical aspect and treatment.

Ophthalmology, 1986
Invasion of the orbit by dipterous fly larvae is a rarely reported from of myiasis. We present a 65-year-old man with orbital myiasis caused by the tissue obligatory larvae of the Old World screw-worm fly Chrysomyia bezziana Villeneuve. Larvae were found invading the orbital apex and exenteration was carried out to prevent intracranial invasion.

Myiasis is the infestation of living tissue by the larvae of flies in the order Diptera. Cutaneous involvement is the most common type of myiasis. Cutaneous myiasis can be subdivided into furuncular, migratory, and wound myiasis. Each subtype is reviewed with discussion of the larvae involved, presenting signs and symptoms, clinical differential ...

Myiasis is defined as the infestation of live vertebrates, either humans or animals, with dipterous larvae. Many organs can be infested by these larvae with cutaneous myiasis being the most common form. Cutaneous myiasis can be divided into three categories: localized furuncular myiasis, migratory myiaisis and wound myiasis, which occurs when fly ...
