Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour in paediatric patients present with a diagnostic dilemma because of its clinical, radiological and histopathological features overlapping with other mesenchymal tumours common in this age. Because of its rarity, the exact features are still unclear. Here, we are reporting clinical, radiological and histopathological appearances of two such cases. In both cases, the exact diagnosis was confirmed only after immunohistochemistry. There is a need for further detailed study to exactly determine the natural course and prognosis of these tumours.
小儿炎性肌纤维母细胞瘤因其临床、放射影像学和组织病理学特征与该年龄段常见的其他间叶肿瘤重叠,故存在诊断难题。由于其罕见性,确切特征仍不清楚。在此,我们报告了两例此类病例的临床、放射影像学和组织病理学表现。在这两种情况下,只有通过免疫组织化学检查才能明确诊断。需要进一步的详细研究来准确确定这些肿瘤的自然病程和预后。
