Prognosis
Furunculoid myiasis usually has a good prognosis, although tetanus and secondary infection may occur as complications. Frank suppuration is less commonly seen as a possible result of the bacteriostatic activity of the larval gut. [sti.bmj.com]

Thus, the mandatory reporting and submission of the larva will help to have a better perspective in terms of epidemiology of the disease. The disease has a benign course; treatment consists of local cleaning of the wound and removal of the maggots. [tropicalparasitology.org]
This entity has specific epidemiological characteristics. Although it is highly unusual in our environment, imported cases can be found because of increased traveling and immigration. [analesdepediatria.org]

To prevent secondary infection, it was prescribed ciprofloxacin 500 mg one tablet at each 12 hours for three days and the patient received anti-tetanus immunization. The material removed (the larvae) was sent to be identified. [go.galegroup.com]
An attempt was made to prevent the larva from breathing by obstructing the orifice with 10% xylocaine gel which also provided local anaesthesia. [sti.bmj.com]
Early treatment is curative and crucial to prevent invasion of healthy tissue. We present an unusual case of acquired cutaneous and cavitary myiasis following head trauma. [shmabstracts.com]
