Abstract

An inflammatory myofibroblastic pseudotumor is a rare lesion that can occur in many localizations, the most common being the lung. Although there are no large series of studies, it is more common in men. Diagnosed by histopathological examination of the excised tissue. There is no pathognomic radiological, clinical, and laboratory diagnostic method. Initially, intermittent fever may cause symptoms such as weight loss, fatigue, as well as suprapubic or abdominal pain due to the compression effect of the mass depending on the area where it is located. Its metastasis is very rare, but local invasion is common. Local excision is applied in the treatment.
