EBV-associated inflammatory pseudotumor: 45-year-old male with no significant past medical history presented with mild left upper quadrant pain. US study showed a splenic mass (not shown). a Axial postcontrast abdominal CT image showed a heterogeneously-enhancing solid mass with central cystic/necrotic component (arrows). b Coronal plane T2W image showed a hypo-isointense solid mass in the splenic parenchyma (arrows). c Axial plane T1W postcontrast image showed heterogeneous contrast enhancement (arrows). As the imaging findings were not found to be conclusive for a benign process, the patient underwent splenectomy. Final histopathological examination confirmed EBV-related inflammatory pseudotumor
