Most of our patients were students, farmers, or housewives. The number of lesions varied from one to four. In 20% of cases, more than one parasite was present in each lesion. The scalp was the most commonly affected region (40%), followed by the trunk and the extremities. Doppler ultrasound study (DUSG) of the furuncle\u2010like lesions confirmed the clinical diagnosis in all cases.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions\u2002<\/jats:bold> Furunculoid myiasis is frequent in the state of Quintana Roo, Mexico. We found no association with occupation, gender, social background or age. DUSG can be used to evaluate the number of parasites per furunculoid lesion avoiding misdiagnoses and treatment delays.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-4632.2004.02471.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,12,24]],"date-time":"2004-12-24T20:43:28Z","timestamp":1103921008000},"page":"34-37","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":64,"title":["The value of Doppler ultrasound in diagnosis in 25 cases of furunculoid myiasis"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"44","author":[{"given":"Marco R.","family":"Quintanilla\u2010Cedillo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Heberth","family":"Le\u00f3n\u2010Ure\u00f1a","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jos\u00e9","family":"Contreras\u2010Ruiz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Roberto","family":"Arenas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2004,12,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_2","first-page":"1014","volume-title":"Steadman's Medical Dictionary","author":"Hensyl WE","year":"1990"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.5962\/bhl.title.119352","volume-title":"Zoologia M\u00e9dica Mexicana.
