VI
Preexisting suppurative lesions that attract deposit of eggs by Diptera flies
Infectious Agents
Infestation of human or animal tissue by fly larvae (maggots) that can feed on host’s tissues, liquid body substances, or ingested food
Species of maggots that feed only on dead tissue do not typically cause myiasis (e.g., common house fly)
Diptera "2-winged true fly" are order of insects responsible
150,000 species in 10,000 genera and 150 families (a small subset cause myiasis)
Classified by: (1) taxonomic family, and (2) differences in pathogenic behavior
Botflies (Dermatobia hominis), American warble fly (torsalo): Southeastern Mexico to northern Argentina, Chile, Uruguay
Screwworm, old world screwworm, Chrysomya: Asia, Africa, India, Papua New Guinea
Blowflies, new world screwworm fly, Cochliomyia hominivorax: Central and South America
Flesh flies, Sarcophagidae: Worldwide; cause myiasis in sheep but also carry leprosy and cause intestinal pseudomyiasis if ingested by humans
Higher magnification of the myiasis fly larva reveals the cuticular spines. In addition, striated muscle in organisms found in the skin is consistent with insect larvae or adults
.
Mango fly, tumbu fly, tumba fly, putzi fly, Cordylobia: East and Central Africa
CLINICAL ISSUES
Epidemiology
Myiasis is among the 5 most common dermatologic conditions in travelers, representing 7.3-11% of cases
Leprosy is endemic in countries where myiasis-causing flies are highly prevalent
Presentation
Cutaneous myiasis and wound myiasis are the most common forms
Furuncular myiasis occurs after penetration of larva into skin
Papule or nodule with a central punctum, which
causes pruritus and pain Number of larvae within lesion varies with
offending species Dermatobia hominis, Cordylobia anthropophaga,
Cuterebra species, Wohlfahrtia vigil, and Wohlfahrtia magnifica
Migratory myiasis occurs when a dipteran maggot migrates through burrows in skin, producing migratory "creeping" pattern
Larvae of Gasterophilus (horse botfly) and Hypoderma (cattle botfly) cause this pattern in humans
Wound myiasis occurs when fly larvae infest open wounds of host
Cochliomyia hominivorax, Chrysomya bezziana, and W. magnifica are the most common flies for wound
myiasis
Cavitary myiasis corresponds to infection of body cavities
Orbital myiasis, or ophthalmomyiasis profunde, is infection of any anatomic structure of eye

Terminology
Infestation of human or animal tissue by fly larvae (maggots) that can feed on host’s tissues, liquid body substances, or ingested food
Etiology
Diptera "2-winged true fly" are order of insects responsible
Other uncommon forms include ENT myiasis, urogenital myiasis, intestinal myiasis, cerebral myiasis, tracheopulmonary myiasis, and umbilical cord myiasis
Treatment
Surgical removal/debridement
Required for wound myiasis
May be primary approach for simple cutaneous myiasis (requested by patient, not required)
Occlusion/oxygen depletions
Nonrestrictive cover (oil, animal fat, meat, petroleum jelly) forces larvae to migrate for oxygen supply
Emerges over a few hours and reduces scarring from surgical removal
Alternative therapy (especially for oral or orbital)
Oral ivermectin or topical ivermectin
Prognosis
Self-limited disease in simple form (larvae is lost in 5-7 weeks)
Wound with debridement and management of secondary infections is excellent
MICROBIOLOGY
Macroscopic Identification
Most parasitological laboratories can aid in visual identification under magnification of larvae after removal of intact maggot
MYIASIS
Key Facts
Clinical Issues
Among the 5 most common dermatologic conditions in travelers, representing 7.3-11% of cases
Cutaneous myiasis and wound myiasis are the most common forms
Top Differential Diagnoses
Cellulitis or furunculosis, and ruptured epidermoid cyst
Leishmaniasis, onchocerciasis, or tungiasis
MICROSCOPIC PATHOLOGY
Histologic Features
Ulcerated epidermis hyperkeratosis; dermis contains mixed acute and chronic inflammatory infiltrate

DEMODEX INFESTATIONS
H&E stained skin biopsy shows a dense inflammatory infiltrate around sebaceous gland, and Demodex mites .
TERMINOLOGY
Synonyms
Demodicosis
Demodectic mange, red mange (in canids)
Demodicidosis
Definitions
Greek: "Demos" (tallow) + "dex" (woodworm)
ETIOLOGY/PATHOGENESIS
Environmental Exposure
Infestations and Other Invertebrate-Related Maladies: Direct Evidence of Invertebrates in Tissue
Worldwide distribution, very common to find on human skin
No racial or sex predilections have been observed
Infectious Agents
Demodex is name given to small mites that live in hair follicles; condition is called demodicosis
2 species: Demodex folliculorum (DF) and Demodex brevis
D. folliculorum (all stages) is found in small hair
follicles and eyelash hair follicles D. brevis (all stages) is present in eyelash sebaceous
glands, small hair sebaceous glands, and lobules of meibomian glands
Life cycle of D. folliculorum estimated to be only 14.5 days from ovum to adult stage
Cross section of skin biopsy stained with H&E shows Demodex mites .
Presentation
Very frequently are simply incidental findings, which are unrelated to underlying pathology generating a biopsy
Demodicidosis
Pruritic, erythematous, papulopustular lesions
Variations include pityriasis folliculorum, rosacea­like demodicidosis, or demodicidosis gravis
Madarosis (loss of lashes) is associated with heavy infestation by mites
Demodex species-induced pathologic changes can cause dry eye conditions and chalazia formation
Demodex blepharitis: Ocular irritation, itching, and scaling of lids
Rosacea: Number of Demodex mites in rosacea patients higher than in control subjects
Demodex can proliferate in immunodeficiency states such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
Treatment
Tea tree oil with Macadamia nut oil are commonly used
Topical insecticides in heavy infestation
Oral ivermectin in severe cases, e.g., HIV patients
Prognosis
No major morbidity or mortality

CLINICAL ISSUES
Epidemiology
Prevalence of Demodex spp. infestation in 1 recent study was 41% and was highest among inpatients and elderly
In general population, age 20-30 has highest colonization due to rate of sebum production
General Features
D. folliculorum measures 0.3-0.4 mm in length, whereas D. brevis measures 0.15-0.2 mm with similar structure of head and thorax but shorter abdomen
DEMODEX INFESTATIONS
Terminology
Demodex is name given to small mites that live in hair follicles; condition is called demodicosis
Clinical Issues
Demodex species-induced pathologic changes can cause dry eye conditions, chalazia formation, and play important role in pityriasis folliculorum
Rosacea: Number of mites in rosacea patients higher than in control subjects
Key Facts
Microscopic Pathology
Demodex folliculorum adult and immature forms consume epithelial cells, cause follicular hyperplasia and marked keratinization
Top Differential Diagnoses
Chalazion, blepharitis, and dry eye syndrome
Infestations and Other Invertebrate-Related Maladies: Direct Evidence of Invertebrates in Tissue
MICROSCOPIC PATHOLOGY
Histologic Features
Demodicidosis show papulopustular lesions with neutrophils in/around glands with organisms
D. folliculorum adult and immature forms consume epithelial cells and cause follicular hyperplasia and marked keratinization
D. brevis adult and immature forms consume sebaceous and meibomian gland cells when infestations are heavy
Both mites produce inflammatory changes, epithelial hyperplasia, and follicular plugging
Organisms are mites and have chitin exoskeleton
DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS
Chalazion
Granulomatous inflammation of meibomian glands, composed of epithelioid cells and histocytes and chronic inflammation; no mites present in biopsy
Demodicidosis should be considered in adults presenting with recurrent chalazia
Blepharitis
Caused by bacterial colonization of eyelid
Dry Eye Syndrome
Multifactorial disease of tears and ocular surface that causes discomfort and tear film instability; no mites present in histological section
Scabies
Burrow through skin, not usually on face; mites in epidermis (not gland associated)
