dc.abstract.enBACKGROUND: Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT), also known as inflammatory pseudotumor, is a benign disorder composed of fibrous tissues, myofibroblasts and inflammatory cell proliferation with obscure etiology. Although it is the most common lung tumor in children, it is seen rarely in adults constituting less than 1% of adult lung tumors. CASE REPORT: In this report, we present different and rare CT manifestations of three adult patients with lung IMT. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, IMT is a rare lung tumor in adults and may simulate malignancy. It should be considered in the differential diagnosis when a large mass with lobulated contour or harboring coarse calcification is observed.pl
