First molecular diagnosis of Oestrus ovis (Linnaeus, 1758) larvae causing conjunctival ophthalmomyiasis in Mexico City, Mexico

2024-06-13

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> Purpose Human ophthalmomyiasis is a rare ocular parasitosis that results from the accidental infestation of dipteran larvae of several species, including <italic>Oestrus ovis</italic> (Linnaeus, 1758). This study aims to present the fourth documented human case of ophthalmomyiasis in Mexico, identifying the etiological agent through morphological and molecular analyses. Additionally, w...
