Journal Title: GJRA-Global Journal For Research Analysis - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Inflammatory myofibroblastictumor (IMT) are rare proliferative, histologically distinctive lesion clinically resembling a malignant neoplasm with uncertain behavior. It is most commonly seen in the soft tissue of children and young adults, especially between 2–16 years. IMT rarely occurs in adults and the most commonly involved site is the lung, although there are a few case reports of extrapulmonary IMTs. According to our knowledge this is the second case of an adult with IMT of anterior abdominal wall. It is often misdiagnosed as a malignant lesion and frequently mismanaged. The diagnosis and treatment is a multidisciplinary approach. A thorough workup is necessary to avoid treatment-associated morbidity and mortality.
