This is the largest myiasis case series in ill returning travelers. Myiasis is not a rare dermatologic complaint with most Israeli cases imported from Latin America and specifically the Madidi National Park in Bolivia. Treatment is based on full extraction of the larva after which no antibiotic treatment is needed. Myiasis is a preventable disease and travelers should be informed of the different preventive measures according to their travel destination.

Abstract. We report a successful treatment of severe falciparum malaria in a non-immune adult patient with 30% parasitemia treated with the 6-dose oral regimen of artemether plus lumefantrine combination therapy alone. We have also retrospectively searched our tertiary center's database for similar cases and we have found two additional severe malaria cases, resolved uneventfully with oral regimen. These cases might indicate a need to specifically address the definition of severe and complicated malaria in non-immune patients either in designated guidelines or as an explicit addition to the historical World Health Organization criteria.
