dc.description.abstract Myiasis is an infestation of maggot flies, usually found in tropical and non-tropical regions such as Africa and South America. Although cases are reported after trips to the endemic regions, it should not be overlooked, as in our case, that they may appear especially in poor socioeconomic conditions and the individuals who have to live in the unsanitary environment. Here, we present a 7-year-old myiasis case in our region because it is rare but it can be easily treated when it is diagnosed and it causes unwanted complications if it is not treated. © 2018 OMU en_US
