An inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) of the respiratory system is an uncommon disease. In Taiwan, there is a lack of previous studies on tracheobronchial IMT. The tumor is characterized by overexpression of anaplastic lymphoma receptor tyrosine kinase (ALK)-1. Surgical resection is the standard treatment of choice nowadays.
呼吸系统的炎性肌纤维母细胞瘤(IMT)是一种罕见疾病。在台湾,此前尚无关于气管支气管 IMT 的研究。该肿瘤的特征是间变性淋巴瘤受体酪氨酸激酶(ALK)-1 的过度表达。目前,手术切除是标准的治疗选择。
