Abstract:
Objective This work aimes to identify the clinical and pathological features of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors to improve the comprehension of the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of the disease.
Methods A case of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor of the ureter in young individuals at the age of 19 was reported.
Results The tumor was completely excised during surgery with end-to-end anastomosis to restore the ureteral functions. The post-operative pathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors in the ureter.
Conclusion The main manifestations of ureter tumors are local compression and ureteral obstruction. This tumor is clinically difficult to distinguish from malignant ureter tumors. Therefore, the final diagnosis mainly depends on pathological examinations. The surgical intervention is the principal therapeutic method. Post-operative follow-up examinations are needed.
