Report of a Case of Human Nasal Myiasis Caused By Second Instar Larvae of Oestrus Ovis in CHU Oran: Review of Literature

Myiasis is the invasion of human and animal organs and tissues by dipteran larvae. This is a case report of a human nasal myiasis caused by the second instar larvae of the sheep bot fly, Oestrusovis. The cases of human myiasis at Oestrusovis are accidental and rare, mainly affecting the eyes. In the literature, there are only sporadic reports of nasal myiasis. We present a new case of nasal myiasis caused by the second instar larvae of Oestrusovis in a 29-year-old male patient, originally from OuedRhiou in the west of Algeria, whois a medical doctor suffering from signs of rhinosinusitis.
