Cutaneous myiasis: a simple and effective technique for extraction of Dermatobia hominis larvae.

P T Loong1, H Lui, H W Buck.   

Abstract

We describe two patients with cutaneous myiasis caused by Dermatobia hominis. Three larvae were removed successfully by a simple technique that involved the injection of each larva with 2 mL of lidocaine, making surgical extraction by incision and exploration unnecessary.
