Özet:

 Myiasis wounds have become increasingly common in recent years, posing challenges due to variable prognoses and complex treatments. This study evaluated the efficacy of Triticum vulgare and Nitrofurazone combination therapy for secondary infections caused by myiasis in dogs. Forty-two medium- and large-breed dogs, aged 2 months to 5 years and weighing 5-56 kg, with myiasis wounds were included. After manual removal of larvae, a pomade containing 50 mgg Triticum vulgare extract and 0.2 g Nitrofurazone was applied three times daily. Wound assessments, including surface area measurements and contraction rates, were performed weekly for four weeks. The most common breeds were mongrels 47.6 and Kangals 33.3, with myiasis primarily affecting the extremities 48 and genital area 28. Most cases 66 occurred during summer. The mean wound area reduced significantly, from 10.0  2.5 cm² initially to 1.5  0.8 cm² by week four, with an 85 wound contraction and healing rate. This study concludes that a combination of Triticum vulgare and Nitrofurazone is highly effective in managing secondary infections caused by myiasis wounds in dogs.
