“…On dermoscopy, larvae appear as whiteyellowish cylindrical structures with multiple black to brown dots forming rings covering the entire tubular structure. [117][118][119] Calderon-Castrat et al 118 and Gontijo et al 117 also reported the presence of pigmented tracheal tubes on the dorsal aspect with perifollicular erythema and scaling.…”

Besides classic applications, dermoscopy has gained significant appreciation also for non‐tumoral dermatoses (general dermatology). In this field, skin parasitoses (infestations), bites and stings have been reported among the conditions that may benefit most from dermoscopic examination. However, published data on this topic are sparse and often lack a standardized analytical approach. In this systematic review of the literature, we sought to summarize available data on dermoscopy of cutaneous parasitoses, bites and stings, analysing dermoscopic features and used setting (polarization or not/magnification), pathological correlation and level of evidence of published studies as well as trying to align dermoscopic terminology of reported findings following a standardized methodology. A total of 150 publications addressing 29 different dermatoses and reporting 96 different dermoscopic findings were included in the analysis. Most of them displayed a level of evidence of V (113 single case reports and 36 case series), with only one study featuring a level of evidence of IV (case–control study). Additionally, our analysis also displayed poor uniformity in the terminology used in published articles (even for the same dermatosis). Therefore, albeit promising, dermoscopy of cutaneous parasitoses, bites and stings needs future systematized studies for a better characterization.

“…Myiasis migrasi disebabkan oleh jenis lalat Gasterophilus (Miguélez et al, 2016), dan Hypoderma (Otranto et al, 2016). Sedangkan lalat yang menyebabkan myiasis traumatika adalah Cochliomyia hominivorax (Calderon-Castrat et al, 2017), Chrysomya bezziana (Sukarsih, et al, 1989) dan Wohlfahrtia magnifica (Kheirabadi et al, 2014 Jenis lalat yang sering menyebabkan kejadian myiasis pada ternak di negara tropis adalah Chrysomya bezziana yang merupakan parasit obligat pada hewan berdarah panas (Katoch et al, 2014). Kejadian myiasis akibat lalat Chrysomya bezziana telah banyak dilaporkan di berbagai negara seperti Indonesia (Wardhana dan Muharsini, 2005), Saudi Arabia (Alahmed, 2004), Irak (Al-Taweel et al, 2000), Iran (Ready et al, 2009), Sri Lanka (Prasad et al, 2000), India (Katoch et al, 2014), Malaysia (Jesse et al, 2016), Brazil (Ribeiro et al, 2003), Amerika Serikat (Alexdaner, 2006), Afrika Selatan (Soyelu dan Masika, 2009) dan Australia (Beckett et al, 2014).…”

Myiasis is defined as a condition in which maggots are from certain fly species that utilize living, dead, or necrotic tissue from the host as a feed source for their growth and development and attack all types of vertebrate animals that are warm-blooded including humans. myiasis is often found in domestic animals in tropical regions throughout the world, especially in developing countries such as Indonesia and is generally associated with low levels of welfare of farmers. The diagnosis of myiasis is based on a clinical examination of wound bleeding, fever, a characteristic odor, the discovery of exudates and maggots in the wound. Myiasis treatment is generally local followed by manual removal of larvae and necrotic tissue debris. Systemic treatment usually uses broad-spectrum antibiotics especially when secondary infections occur. Disease prevention can be done by providing information to farmers to pay attention to and carry out livestock sanitation, pens, the surrounding environment and control flies using various methods. Keywords: clinical examination, disease prevention, maggot, myiasis

“…En la literatura médica nacional se han reportado casos de miasis asociados a Cochliomyia hominivorax (6,7,8) , Dermatotobia hominis (9) , y Oestrus Ovis (10) ; sin embargo, solo se encontró un caso sobre miasis nosocomial (11) . En general, la literatura coincide en que existe un subregistro de casos de miasis nosocomiales (3) .…”

Presentamos un caso de miasis nosocomial ocurrido en un hospital peruano, cuyo agente etiológico identificado fue Cochliomyia hominivorax, en un paciente de 82 años que estuvo internado en una unidad de cuidados intensivos por insuficiencia respiratoria aguda tipo I, y sepsis por absceso hepático, el cual fue sometido a intubación para brindarle respiración mecánica asistida. Al tercer día de ingreso a UCI se observó presencia de múltiples larvas maduras de tercer estadio en cavidad oral. El tratamiento consistió en la extracción manual de las larvas y terapia de ivermectina a razón de 0,2 miligramos por kilogramo de peso con respuesta favorable. Al mes de ser diagnosticado de miasis el paciente fallece por complicaciones de sepsis hepática y neumonía.
