[A case report of nasal myiasis].

Abstract

A 66-year-old male patient presented with rhinocnesmus and mild epistaxis. More than 100 maggots were found in the right nasal cavity by nasal endoscopy. The affected nasal mucosa was erythematous, edematous, ulcerated, and mild bleeding on probing was present. No nasal septal perforation or destruction of nose was noted. Middle and inferior meatus, nasopharyngeal mucosa, orbit, facial skin, oral cavity, gingiva and external auditory canal were normal. The maggot was identified as larvae of Chrysomyia megacephala.
