چکیده مقاله:
Myiasis is an infestation of tissues with larval stage of dipterous flies. This condition most often affects the skin and may also occur in certain body cavities. It is mainly seen in the tropics, though it may also be rarely encountered in non-tropical regions. Herein, we present a case of cutaneous furuncular myiasis in an Iranian male who had travelled to Africa and his condition was finally diagnosed with observation of spiracles of larvae in the lesions.
