Abstract

Myiasis is an ectoparasitic infestation by fly larvae that rarely occurs in humans. It is classified clinically based on the infested body region, including cutaneous, enteric, ophthalmic, nasopharyngeal, auricular, oral, urogenital, and gastrointestinal myiasis.1 Although cutaneous myiasis is one of the most common forms, subungual myiasis has very rarely been reported worldwide. We report 2 cases of subungual myiasis in patients with predisposing factors.
