ABSTRACT
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors (IMT) are rare benign lesions that may often be mistaken for malignancies due to their imaging resemblance. There are a limited number of case reports in the literature on the location at the level of the gallbladder. We present a case of IMT of the gallbladder that emphasizes the importance of conventional ultrasound as the primary method of detection, as well as the role of contrast-enhanced ultrasound and strain elastography in describing the lesion, thus contributing to the differential diagnosis.
