Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor of the Urinary Bladder Managed by Laparoscopic Partial Cystectomy
نویسندگان
چکیده
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor of the urinary bladder is a rare mesenchymal tumor with uncertain malignant potential. It often mimics soft tissue sarcomas both clinically and radiologically. Surgical resection in the form of partial cystectomy or transurethral resection remains the mainstay of treatment. Herein we report the case of an inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor in a young girl, which was managed by laparoscopic partial cystectomy. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of laparoscopic management of an inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor of the urinary bladder.

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors rarely occur in the urinary bladder. These masses follow an indolent course, but due to their histologic similarities to more malignant types of bladder masses, they must be differentiated with immunohistochemical staining. Once diagnosed, the mainstay of treatment for these masses is surgical resection. Due to advancements in robotic surgery, new surgical te...
