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

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, gastrointestinal stromal tumour, epithelioid inflammatory myofibroblastic sarcoma
Site soft tissue - see fibroblastic/myofibroblastic tumours

Prevalence uncommon
Prognosis benign
Clin. DDx other soft tissue lesions

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

General

  • Mostly benign.
  • Children & young adults.

May be treated with:

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.[9]

IHC

Features - dependent on site:

  • SMA +ve.[10]
  • Vimentin +ve.
  • ALK-1 +ve.[6]
  • CD117 -ve.
    • Case report of CD117 +ve.[8]
  • CD30 -ve.

Variable staining with:

Negative:[10]

  • S100, CD117, CD68.

Molecular

  • ALK rearrangements.[7]
  • ROS1 rearrangements.[5]
