Abstract

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a rare condition of unknown origin. Pathologically, the lesion is composed of myofibroblastic spindle cells accompanied by an inflammatory infiltrate of plasma cells, lymphocytes, and eosinophils. We report two cases of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor of the bladder which showed different imaging features and was falsely diagnosed as malignant tumors. We discuss the imaging findings along with a literature review.

염증성근섬유모세포종양은 원인이 밝혀지지 않은 드문 질환이다. 현재 병리학적으로 형질 세포, 림프구, 호산구 등의 염증성 침윤을 동반하는 근육섬유모세포로 이루어진 종양으로 정의된다. 저자들은 서로 다른 영상소견을 보이고 악성 종양으로 오인된 방광의 염증성근섬유모세포종양 2예의 영상 소견을 보고하며 문헌을 고찰하고자 한다.
