Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour (IMT) occurring at intraabdominal sites in children has rarely been described. Inflammatory pseudotumour is a soft tissue lesion that may be confused with a sarcoma. It is abbreviated as IMT. Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour, also known as soft tissue tumours, atypical fibromyxoid tumours, pseudosarcomatous fibromyxoid tumour, plasma cell granuloma, pseudosarcomatous myofibrotic proliferation, post-operative spindle cell nodules. In this paper, we describe a case of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour (IMT) with an unusual constellation of clinical, pathological findings. A 10-year-old girl had an 7-cm intraabdominal mass accompanied by severe anemia, fever, constipation, weight loss, thrombocytosis, elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Laparotomy was performed. The final pathologic diagnosis was IMT. At the most recent follow up (12months) after excision of the tumour, the patient was symptom-free and there was no evidence of tumour recurrence.J. Paediatr.

Aortic spindle cell sarcoma is a rare neoplasm with poor prognosis that is often found incidentally due to its adverse effects. CT and MRI with contrast are useful imaging modalities, but a tissue biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosis. Tumor resection is the ultimate treatment followed by chemotherapy. Our case was an adult female who presented mainly for shortness of breath, and further imaging workup demonstrated a soft tumor juxtaposed to a major vein with compressive effect. The patient’s tumor was resected, and the pathology result confirmed undifferentiated aortic sarcoma. The patient’s condition improved and she was discharged with outpatient oncology follow-up and possible treatment.
