Resumo: Introduction: Myiasis is a condition caused by infestation of fly larvae on skin and other tissues, being more frequent in underdeveloped and tropical countries. In addition, when diagnosed and treated late, it can lead to death. Objective: there are several forms of treatment described, the choice of therapy varies according to the number of larvae, and the tissue involved. The purpose of this paper is to report two clinical cases of myiasis involving the maxillofacial region, demonstrating the efficiency and safety of the therapy chosen. Case report: Two patients were treated by mechanical removal of the larvae using clamp and oral administration of antiparasitic (Ivermectin 12mg, single dose). A total reduction of worm larvae was observed with no significant intercurrence. Conclusion: The mechanical removal of larvae associated with single dose Ivermectin is a viable option for the treatment of myiasis in the maxillofacial region.

Além disso, quando diagnosticada e tratada tardiamente pode levar o paciente a óbito. Objetivo: Há várias formas de tratamento descritas e a escolha da terapia varia a cada caso, segundo o número de larvas e o tecido envolvido. O intuito deste trabalho é relatar dois casos clínicos de miíase envolvendo a região maxilofacial, demonstrando a eficiência e a segurança da terapia escolhida. Relato de caso: Dois pacientes foram tratados através da remoção mecânica das larvas com auxílio de pinça e administração, por via oral, de antiparasitário (Ivermectina 12mg, dose única). Observou-se uma redução total de larvas nas feridas sem nenhuma intercorrência significativa. Conclusão: A remoção mecânica das larvas associada com Ivermectina em dose única é uma opção viável para o tratamento de miíase na região maxilofacial.Editora UFJF2019-08-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionRelCasapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/hurevista/article/view/1696110.34019/1982-8047.2019.v45.16961HU Revista; v. 45 n. 1 (2019); 76-811982-80470103-3123reponame:HU Revista (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF)instacron:UFJFporhttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/hurevista/article/view/16961/18903Pereira Júnior, Antônio José AraújoPossas da Fonseca Pereira, Isabela Coelho da Silva Filho, Nilson Souza Mota Reis, Clarissa info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2019-09-06T16:46:36Zoai:periodicos.ufjf.br:article/16961Revistahttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/hurevistaPUBhttps://periodicos.ufjf.br/index.php/hurevista/oairevista.hurevista@ufjf.edu.br1982-80470103-3123opendoar:2019-09-06T16:46:36HU Revista (Online) - Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF)false
