I've a friend who has a loft full of old horns and cases; he claims that the only way to get rid of the mildew is to burn the case.

Short of that, you need to put the case OUTDOORS in the sun. Indoors, you're not getting any UV to the little smelly critters.

Other solutions might be an ozone generator (may cause bleaching, though), or a solution of chlorine bleach sprayed on the innards (bleaching again). If this is a wooden case, the mildew may have penetrated into the wood, which will make it very difficult to get rid of.
