Abstract: Inflammatory pseudotumor is a rare, benign lesion of various organs and tissues, characterized by proliferating fibrovascular tissue admixed with inflammatory cells of etiology and pathogenesis that are largely unknown.

Aspects concerning incidence, etiology, clinical, and histopathologic characteristics are discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
