A story on maggot therapy. Cindy Kennedy visits Wesley Medical Center's Midwest Center for Wound Healing in Wichita to undergo maggot therapy to clean out the dead tissue in her abdomen. The process involves the introduction of live, disinfected maggots (fly larvae) into the non-healing skin and soft tissue wounds of a human or animal for the purpose of cleaning out the dead tissue within a wound.
