Human cutaneous myiasis due to mixed infestation in a drug addict.

R Fotedar1, U Banerjee, A K Verma.   

Abstract

Soft tissue infestation by maggots of flies (myiasis) is a well-recognized complication of neglected wounds. Mixed infestation by larvae of more than one species of fly is a rarity. We report, for the first time in India, one such case of cutaneous myiasis due to mixed infestation--in this instance by Chrysomya bezziana and Sarcophaga sp. in a drug addict.
