RESUMO

PURPOSE: We present an unusual case of myiasis involving the orbital cavity. OBSERVATIONS: Our patient had undergone orbital exenteration one month prior to presentation. Post-operatively, he presented with multiple, highly mobile larvae in the orbital cavity. The species was identified to be Lucilia sericata, known commonly as the blowfly. The maggots were removed mechanically. CONCLUSION AND IMPORTANCE: The orbital cavity subsequently healed rapidly without sequalae. This raised the question as to whether L. sericata maggots may have had beneficial effects to the healing process.
