Inflammatory pseudotumor is a rare benign condition of unknown cause. A 19-year-old female presented with gross hematuria and storage symptoms to the emergency. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan revealed a mass of 5 cm × 6 cm involving the dome and anterior wall of the bladder. Urachal carcinoma was kept as a possibility and transurethral biopsy of the aforementioned lesion was performed. The histopathology revealed inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) of the bladder. A laparoscopic partial cystectomy was undertaken with adequate resection margins and the histopathology of the lesion confirmed IMT. When evaluating a mass in the genitourinary tract in a young individual, IMT should be considered as a possibility.
炎性假瘤是一种病因不明的罕见良性疾病。一名19岁女性因肉眼血尿和储尿期症状就诊于急诊科。增强计算机断层扫描显示一个5厘米×6厘米的肿块,累及膀胱顶部和前壁。脐尿管癌仍有可能,遂对上述病变进行了经尿道活检。组织病理学显示为膀胱炎性肌纤维母细胞瘤(IMT)。行腹腔镜部分膀胱切除术,切除边缘足够,病变的组织病理学证实为IMT。在评估年轻个体泌尿生殖道肿块时,应考虑IMT的可能性。
