Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors in children: a single-center retrospective study of clinical features, management, and outcomes

Pediatric IMT is a rare, low-grade malignancy with favorable prognosis. Complete surgical resection remains the cornerstone of treatment. ALK-targeted therapy may benefit patients with unresectable or recurrent disease. Long-term surveillance is warranted due to the risk of recurrence.
