Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour
Diagnosis in short

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour. H&E stain.

LM inflammation (plasma cells - predominant, lymphocytes, eosinophils), spindle cells without atypia +/-fascicular architecture, +/-mitoses (none atypical), +/-necrosis, +/-hemorrhage, +/-calcification
LM DDx calcifying fibrous pseudotumour, inflammatory fibroid tumour, nodular fasciitis
Site soft tissue - see fibroblastic/myofibroblastic tumours

Prevalence uncommon
Prognosis benign
Clin. DDx other soft tissue lesions

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour, abbreviated IMT, is an uncommon soft tissue lesion.

It is also known as inflammatory pseudotumour, and inflammatory fibrosarcoma[1] and plasma cell granuloma.[2][3]

General

  • Mostly benign.
  • Children & young adults.

Gross

Microscopic

Features:[1]

  • Inflammation:
  • Spindle cells without atypia.
  • +/-Fascicular architecture.
  • Mitoses -- though none atypical.
  • +/-Necrosis.
  • +/-Hemorrhage.
  • Calcifications.

DDx:

Notes:

  • Some consider this a wastebasket diagnosis... for benign appearing spindle cell lesions.[7]

Images

IHC

Features - dependent on site:

  • SMA +ve.[8]
  • Vimentin +ve.
  • ALK-1 +ve.[4]
  • CD117 -ve.
    • Case report of CD117 +ve.[6]

Variable staining with:

  • CD34, AE1/AE3, calretinin.[9][8]

Negative:[8]

  • S100, CD117, CD68.

Molecular

  • ALK rearrangements.[5]
