Case report: The role and value of radiotherapy in treatment of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor
We have reviewed the literature and summarized and discussed the radiotherapy treatment options and challenges for IMT. We first reported high-dose radiotherapy combined with chemotherapy treatment for unresectable IMT. Concurrent radiochemotherapy may be considered an intensive treatment for local progress, local recurrence, and nonresectable IMT patients.
