Sumario:Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors have a wide spectrum of biological behaviour and are composed of inflammatory cells and myofibroblastic spindle cells. Tumors may infrequently involve the liver. Imaging findings are non-specific. Teaching Point: Radiologists should be familiar with inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors as a diagnostic consideration to avoid unnecessary surgery.
