Abstract:
In humans and other mammals, urinary myiasis can be rarely caused by Eristalis tenax, which belongs to the order Diptera. In this case, we report a 21-year-old woman with this myiasis. She was complaining of dysuria and bilateral Costolumbar pain. The larva in her urine sample was identified as E. tenax associated with its typical morphology.
