Inflammatory Endobronchial Myofibroblastic Tumor: A Case Report

Abstract

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is a rare benign lesion that accounts for 0.04–1% of all lung tumors and usually appears as a solitary pulmonary nodule or mass. Here, we report the case of an endobronchial inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor in a 21-year-old man with a focus on the imaging findings and a review of previous literature.
