Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a rare tumor with an indolent course. It is less often reported as a second tumor that occurs after treatment of malignant tumors in pediatric patients. Here, we report a case of IMT following Wilms tumor (WT), and conduct a literature review concerning IMTs and WT to evaluate the diagnostic possibility of IMT as a second tumor. The coexistence of the 2 tumors may cause confusion as to whether they share genetic links or that IMTs may appear as late effects of the treatment of WT.
炎性肌纤维母细胞瘤(IMT)是一种罕见的具有惰性病程的肿瘤。它作为儿科患者恶性肿瘤治疗后的第二肿瘤报道较少。在此,我们报告一例 Wilms 瘤(WT)后的 IMT,并对 IMT 和 WT 进行文献复习,以评估 IMT 作为第二肿瘤的诊断可能性。这两种肿瘤的共存可能会导致混淆,即它们是否具有遗传联系,或者 IMT 是否可能是 WT 治疗的晚期效应。
