ABSTRACT
Inflammatory pseudotumors (IPTs) are uncommon, mass-forming lesions, predominantly involving the lung and orbit. Although the incidence of IPTs is rare in the abdomen and pelvis, they can be encountered as enhancing, soft-tissue lesions, mimicking malignancy or fibrosclerosing disease. Generally, they exhibit a wide range of nonspecific imaging features in various organs. Preoperative imaging diagnosis of IPTs in appropriate clinical settings may help determine proper patient management. In this article, we review radiologic findings of IPTs in the abdominopelvic cavity, including the liver, spleen, kidney, gastrointestinal tract, mesentery, pelvis, and retroperitoneum.
