Nasal myiasis is a common disease in tropical and developing countries. The maggots cause extensive necrosis, sloughing and destruction of intranasal tissue and reach to deep and inaccessible areas of the nose and paranasal sinuses. In such a situation removal of maggots is difficult by manual extraction and several sittings are required.
