We report a case of penile myiasis in a Brazilian man caused by the larva of Dermatobia hominis. Myiasis is a parasitic disease of humans and other vertebrates caused by larvae of several fly species. Although urinary myiasis is well recognised, infestation of the genital tissue is a rare occurrence. Once the diagnosis has been made, the treatment is usually straightforward and uncomplicated.
我们报告一例由人皮蝇幼虫引起的巴西男子阴茎蝇蛆病病例。蝇蛆病是一种由多种蝇类幼虫引起的人类和其他脊椎动物的寄生虫病。虽然泌尿生殖道蝇蛆病已广为人知,但生殖组织感染却很少见。一旦确诊,治疗通常简单直接,并不复杂。
