Abstract
|
|
|
|
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is a rare benign condition of an unknown etiology and it may be clinically misdiagnosed as a malignant tumor. We examined a 28- year-old male with a slowly-growing mass in his left thigh. The MR images showed a relatively well-defined, intermuscular mass lesion with heterogeneous enhancement. The histopathologic examination of the resected specimen revealed inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor. We report here on the MR findings of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor of the thigh in this patient.
