Abstract
Cutaneous larva migrans (CLM) is a zoonotic helminthiasis frequently imported to Canada by travellers to beach destinations in the tropics. The preferred treatment is oral ivermectin. We present a case of CLM acquired within the province of Quebec, a first in our provincial health records. Our case also puts forward the use of topical ivermectin as a possibly effective CLM treatment approach as our patient was successfully treated with 1 month of an ivermectin 1% cream applied locally twice daily.
