Myiasis is a parasitic infestation of fly larvae caused by dipterous larvae that live in the host's dead or living tissues. This study reported the first case of urogenital myiasis in infants from Iran caused by Lucilia sericata. The 10-month-old boy was taken to the hospital by his mother due to restlessness and abdominal pain. During the examination, motile and live larvae were observed in the penis area. The patient had no history of infectious disease or immune system deficiency, and his blood tests were normal. The entomological analysis found that the source of this myiasis was Lucilia sericata fly larvae. The report of such cases highlighted the importance of physical examination and the awareness of physicians in dealing with myiasis, as well as the necessity of educating mothers on the hygiene of the living environment and child care in rural areas.
