Wound Myiasis

Bacteremia induced by wound myiasis is uncommon and therefore rarely suspected by clinicians when treating patients with neglected wounds. We present a case of <i>Ignatzschineria larvae</i> bacteremia as a complication of <i>Lucilia</i> sp. maggot wound myiasis in a young male migrant. This is the first reported human case of <i>Ignatzschineria</i> bacteremia in Slovenia and one of the 2 described in the literature where the fly larvae infesting the wounds of the patient with <i>Ignatzschineria</i> bacteremia were not only suspected to be <i>Lucilia</i> sp. but also entomologically identified.

Introduction: Among all the traumatic hip dislocations, anterior hip dislocation is a rarity in which the obturator inferior variety is one of the rarest to be documented [1]. Here we present to you the case of our patient, a 35-year-old male with a six month neglected obturator variety of anterior hip dislocation treated by salvage procedure of open reduction without the need for intertrochanteric osteotomy and resultant preserved natural hip for ambulation as an intermediary procedure. Case Report: Mr. SH a 35-year-old male had a fall from 15 feet in his village and was treated by a local quack, Meanwhile the patient continued to experience pain and difficulty walking and after an ordeal of nearly 6 months during the lockdown period in coronavirus disease pandemic, showed up in our emergency room and was diagnosed with an obturator type anterior hip dislocation for which we carried out open reduction aided with Murphys skid through an anterolateral approach and stabilization using two Steinman pins and further immobilization by Thomas splint for a period of 15 days, which was done after confirmation of intact head vascularity under general anesthesia after which gradual mobilization was initiated. 3 months post operative, now patient is ambulatory with stick support with no deformity, no pain and with early radiological features of avascular necrosis (AVN) for which Total Hip Replacement (THR) is planned at a later date. Conclusion: Utilisation of salvage procedures and moreover those with minimal operative complications will result in better, natural long-term intermediary measure outcome with a resultant delay in joint replacement procedure which is in the better interest of the patient. Keywords: Anterior hip dislocation, open reduction, obturator inferior type, neglected dislocation, Anterolateral approach.
