A Case Report on Primary Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor of the Stomach in an Adult Female: A Comprehensive Analysis
Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor (IMT) is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm characterized primarily by myofibroblastic proliferation and a prominent inflammatory infiltrate, including plasma cells and lymphocytes. Although IMTs predominantly affect adolescents and can arise in various body sites, they are exceedingly rare in adults, particularly within the stomach. This report presents a case involving an adult patient who underwent surgical resection for a suspected malignant gastric tumor, which was subsequently diagnosed as an IMT on histopathological examination.
