Abstract

A case report from St. Paul's Hospital Millennium Medical College in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, discusses a rare case of nasal myiasis with angioedema in a 7-year-old girl. The patient presented with facial swelling, maggots in her nasal cavities, and blood-tinged discharge. Treatment included antibiotics, dexamethasone, maggot removal, and debridement, with successful results. The research emphasizes the importance of prompt diagnosis and treatment, as well as maintaining good hygiene practices to prevent this condition. [Extracted from the article]
