BACKGROUND Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor rarely occurs in the carotid artery, whereas syncope is infrequently associated with neck mass. METHODS AND RESULTS We reby present a case in which a 56-year-old man with inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor at the left carotid bifurcation and is accompanied by recurrent syncope and falls. He underwent surgery, after which corticosteroids and antibi...

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is currently considered to be a low-grade neoplasm, and it rarely involves the heart. We reported a rare case of a 59-year-old female who received cardiac surgery for complete resection of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor in the left atrium. Five months after surgery, the patient presented with acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema and subsequent sudden death du...

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors include a diverse group of lesions characterized by inflammatory cell infiltration and variable fibrotic responses. Occurrence in the temporal bone is unusual. We present CT and MR imaging findings of an inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor of the temporal bone in a 26-year-old patient with repeated paroxystic episodes of rotatory vertigo that occurred over a f...

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour is an uncommon tumour of intermediate malignant potential. Its aetiology is still unclear. It occurs predominantly in children and young adults. This report presents a case of pulmonary inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour in a 5-year-old girl. The patient had a history of recurrent respiratory tract infections. A chest radiograph and computed tomography chest...

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is an uncommon soft tissue neoplasm of uncertain biologic behavior, and rarely reported in the stomach. An eighteen-year-old male presented with a mass in the epigastrium of three-month duration. Clinical and radiological examination suggested a gastrointestinal stromal tumor or a leiomyoma in the lesser curvature of the stomach. On the basis of histomorpholog...

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, whi...

Myofibroblastic tumor, also known as inflammatory pseudotumor or pseudosarcoma, is a benign tumor with mesenchymal origin. Bladder location is very uncommon. We report the case of a 58-year-old man with a history of von Recklinghausen's disease who complained for painless macroscopic hematuria 5 months after suprapubic prostatectomy. The radiograph evaluation revealed a bladder tumor, and the p...

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour is a rare disorder of unknown aetiology first described in the lung. Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour of the middle ear accounts for only a small portion of this disease and tends to have a more aggressive and unpredictable course than the disease at other sites of the body. Fewer than 20 cases of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour of the middle ear have ...

INTRODUCTION Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor as a rare neoplastic lesion is seen most commonly in the pulmonary system. Beside the presence of limited number of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors of the gastrointestinal tract in the literature, co-existence with acute appendicitis has not been reported before. PRESENTATION OF CASE A 27-year-old woman admitted to emergency department with ...

Myofibroblastic sarcoma can be classified as low-, intermediate-, and high-grade. Low-grade myofibroblastic (LGMS) is uncommon rarely appears on the skin. LGMS diagnosed based histopathological immunohistochemical findings. Additionally, metastases are rare well. Herein, authors describe a case of cutaneous in neck. To best our knowledge, there no cases regarding neck present existing literatur...
