Adult Bronchial Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor: A Case Report
We have reported the case of endobronchial IMT in an adult, with a degree of contrast enhancement on CT lower than that previously reported for intratracheal IMT. The tumor lacks specific clinical symptoms and laboratory findings, which poses a challenge for accurate and timely preoperative diagnosis. Based on literature reports, in patients with recurrent cough, hemoptysis, or dyspnea, if CT shows a smoothly marginated endobronchial nodule with mild enhancement, the possibility of this disease should be considered.
