[A case of cutaneous myiasis caused by Dermatobia hominis].
Due to increasing international travelling of European population, tropical parasitic diseases may be imported more frequently in temperate countries. We describe a subject who travelled in Brasil and returned to Italy with a subcutaneous nodule containing a phase-II Dermatobia hominis larva; such larva is reported with photographic documentation.
