Massive scalp myiasis with bleeding in a patient with multiple malignancies.

Uwe Wollina1.   

Abstract

Most cases of myiasis in association with cancer are reported in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck region. They are not emergencies. We report a case of massive myiasis of the scalp with bleeding in a patient with an ulcerated squamous cell carcinoma of the scalp, haematological and colorectal malignancies. Treatment of myiasis is based on local disinfection and mechanical removal of larvae. Other options of treatment are discussed.
