Abstract
- Key Clinical Message: Maggots in a wound ("myiasis") cannot be considered maggot therapy (therapeutic myiasis) unless, at a minimum, the species is known to be safe and effective, and the maggots have been properly disinfected. Documenting treatment details is critical and allows us to determine the cause of problems, if they arise. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
