Myiasis is a condition resulting from the invasion of tissues or organs of man or animals by the larvae of dipterous flies. The distribution of myiasis is worldwide, with more cases being reported from tropical, subtropical, and warm temperate areas. The various forms of myiasis may be classified from an entomological or a clinical point of view. This report describes a rare case of vulvar myiasis due to Wohlfahrtia magnifica in an otherwise healthy 20-year-old Iranian female. To our knowledge, this is the first report of cutaneous myiasis of the vulva due to W. magnifica from Iran and the Middle East region.
蝇蛆病是一种由双翅目蝇类幼虫侵入人或动物的组织或器官而引起的病症。蝇蛆病在全球范围内均有分布，热带、亚热带和暖温带地区报告的病例更多。蝇蛆病的各种形式可从昆虫学或临床角度进行分类。本报告描述了一例罕见的外阴蝇蛆病病例，患者为一名20岁健康的伊朗女性，由黑须污蝇所致。据我们所知，这是伊朗和中东地区首例关于由黑须污蝇引起的外阴皮肤蝇蛆病的报告。
