 Human Myiases for Dermatobia hominis (Linnaeus Jr.) (Diptera, Cuterebridae) and Cochliomyia hominivorax (Coquerel) (Diptera, Calliphoridae) in Parasitic Succession
 Abstract. The objective this work was to tell a rare case of parasitic succession of two species of larvae of flies producing of primary myiases, Dermatobia hominis and Cochliomyia hominivorax, in a 12 year-old youth assisted in an public hospital in São Gonçalo (RJ).

Factors of Susceptibility of Human Myiasis Caused by the New World Screw-Worm,Cochliomyia hominivoraxin São Gonçalo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

“…The patient was a 43 year old, white bar owner where he worked in shorts and light clothes and had an income of five minimum wages. Although this patient had a better socio-economic status, the presence of stray animals such as dogs, cats, horses, and cattle passing near his residence and workplace acted as reservoirs of parasitosis and effective dispersal of larvae of C. hominivorax in peri-urban area as described by Batista-da-Silva et al ( 2009 ). Rouquayrol ( 1994 ) reported that economically privileged social groups are less exposed to environmental factors that contribute to certain types of diseases compared with the economically less privileged groups.…”

“…Factors that contribute to the emergence of this parasite include low social condition, alcoholism, mental or neurological diseases, poor personal hygiene, patients with varicose ulcers, diabetes, malnutrition, advanced stages of cancer, pediculosis, immunosuppression, patients with STD, patients with gingivitis, and other lesions in the oral cavity and advanced age ( Albernaz 1933 ; Kaminsky 1993 ; Verettas et al 2008 ). Other factors such as the presence of domestic animals, mendicancy, and unhealthy environments also contribute to the emergence of new cases ( Batista-da-Silva et al 2009 ).…”

Patient with Tracheostomy Parasitized in Hospital by Larvae of the Screwworm,Cochliomyia hominivorax

“…Myiasis is an infestation that affects animals, including humans, causing serious economic and public health problems (Queiroz et al 2005; Batista-da-Silva et al 2009). According to Guimarães and Papavero (1999), the type of infestation can be classified by the characteristics of the larva and the damage that it causes: the obligate species parasitize living tissues while the facultative species parasitize necrotic tissues in living individuals.…”

“…In the literature, myiasis of humans has been associated with low socioeconomic status, alcoholism, mental or neurological diseases, poor personal hygiene, patients with varicose ulcers, diabetes, malnutrition, advanced stages of cancer, pediculosis, immunosuppression, patients with STD, patients with gingivitis, and other lesions in the oral cavity and advanced age ( Albernaz 1933 ; Kaminsky 1993 ; Verettas et al 2008 ). Other factors such as the presence of domestic animals, mendicancy, unhealthy environments, and even debilitated and bedridden patients also contribute to the emergence of new cases ( Batista-da-Silva et al 2009 , 2011 ).…”
