Abstract

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour (IMFT) is a distinct entity under the group of inflammatory pseudotumours. Sometimes these pseudotumours can have an aggressive appearance on imaging, which makes it indistinguishable from other malignant neoplasms. We present a case of IMFT of the bladder in a child.
