Abstract
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a tumefactive proliferation of spindled myofibroblastic cells admixed with inflammatory infiltrate. This tumor has a predilection for pulmonary location and also involves visceral soft tissues in children and adults. Tumors in extrapulmonary locations like abdomen, mesentery, bowel, head & neck, genitourinary and musculoskeletal are more aggressive locally and mimic malignancy. IMTs from colon are very rare and are treated by surgical excision. We report a case of a 9-month old female with IMT of sigmoid colon with no bowel complaints, treated by complete surgical excision with no further treatment needed.
