Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor of the urinary bladder: A case report.

Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumors represent a rare subset of spindle cell tumors that can occur in the genitourinary tract, most commonly within the bladder. These tumors are proposed to fall in a spectrum of benign inflammatory pseudotumors to true sarcomas. This, along with their rarity makes diagnosis and treatment challenging to clinicians. We present a 51-year-old female diagnosed with IMT of the bladder following a presentation for hematuria. Treatment consisted of transurethral resection of the tumor. This case, and the accompanying review of the literature highlight the need for further research due to lack of clarity for diagnosis and treatment.
