Abstract

Aural myiasis is a disease characterized by infestation of fly larvae in the ear and symptoms associated with this infestation. It is a rarely encountered situation and usually affects pateints having mental retardation and children living with families with a low socio-economical status. In this article we present a case report regarding a clinical condition caused by infestation of 10 Wohlfahrtia magnifica larvae in the ear of a 4 year-old girl. Following a history of crying, irritability and left sided otorrhea, the mother of the patient had filled the ear canal with a few drops of milks. Phyisical examination of the patient revealed multiple larvae in the external ear canal. The larvae were aspirated under otomicroscopic vision and tympanic membrane was found to be perforated. The field was irrigated with saline and the patient was prescribed topical antibiotic drops. No complications were observed during the folow up period of the patient

Özet

Aural miyazis, sinek larvalarının kulakta yerleşimi ve buna bağlı ortaya çıkan semptomlar ile karakterize olan bir hastalıktır. Oldukça nadir görülen bu durum özellikle düşük sosyo-ekonomik seviyeye sahip çocukları ve mental retardasyonu olan kişileri etkiler. Bu makalede fakir bir aileden gelen, 4 yaşında bir kız çocuğunun sol kulağına yerleşmiş 10 adet Wohlfahrtia magnifica larvasının neden olduğu klinik tablo sunulmaktadır. Sol kulakta akıntı, ağlama ve huzursuzluğu olan, bu nedenle annesi tarafından kulağına süt damlatılmış olan hastanın yapılan muayenesinde dış kulak yolunu dolduran larvalar otomikroskopi eşliğinde temizlenmiş ve timpanik membranın perfore olduğu izlenmiştir. Salin irigasyonu yapılan ve topikal antibiyoterapi verilen hastanın kontrollerinde herhangi bir sorun izlenmemiştir.
