Myiasis是以寄主的活/死组织为食的寄生蝇幼虫的极端感染的通用术语。牙龈菌病是人类的一种罕见疾病,与口腔卫生不良有关,化脓性口腔病变,酗酒,和衰老,除了其他条件。我们介绍了一名21岁的智障男性,患有中度牙周炎和神经功能缺损,在上颌表面上颌前部区域出现牙龈菌病。根据病变中是否存在幼虫进行诊断。所做的治疗是手动去除幼虫,一个接一个,在临床钳的帮助下,口腔伤口的外科清创术,以及随后的牙周病管理。
Myiasis is a universal term for extreme infection by the parasitic fly larvae that feed on their host living/dead tissue. Gingival myiasis is a rare disease in the humans associated with poor oral hygiene, suppurative oral lesions, alcoholism, and senility, among other conditions. We present a
case of gingival myiasis in the maxillary anterior region on the palatal surface in a 21-year-old mentally challenged male with moderate periodontitis and neurologic deficit. The diagnosis was made on the presence of larvae in the lesion. Treatment done was a manual removal of the larvae, one by one, with the help of the clinical forceps, surgical debridement of the oral wound, and subsequent management of the periodontal disease.
