TABLE 5.
Radiological features of the reported cases of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor of the colon.
| References # | Age/Gender | Radiology findings | Preoperative diagnosis | Location |
| (49) | 7 years/female | Abdomen US: demonstrated a large mass in the right lower quadrant, measuring 6 m in diameter. | Malignant neoplasm. | Cecum, with extension to the ascending colon, terminal ileum, ileal mesentery, and mesoappendix. |
| (50) | 68 years/male | CT scan abdomen: rounded-filling defect at hepatic flexure. Barium enema: a mass at hepatic flexure that hinders the passage of enema to the proximal colon. |
ND. | 2*3 cm Intraluminal mass inside the colon at hepatic flexure (involving the serosa layer of the colon). |
| (51) | 9 years/female | US: an abdominal mass near the bladder. CT scan: mass that has 2 lobules, centrally attenuated proposing necrosis. |
DD: Lymphoma, neuroblastome and inflammatory bowel disease. Final diagnosis of IMT achieved by needle-biopsy. |
13*10*6.5 cm mass in the serosal layer of the cecum, it involves the muscularis propria layer, but the mucosa layer is not involved. |
| (52) | 41 years/Female | AP abdominal x-ray: showed accentuated distension and dilatation of thin intestinal loops and hydro-aerial levels. Abdominal US: reported concentric thickening of the wall of the ascending and transverse colon with preservation of the visualization of its layers. Abdomen and pelvis tomography: showed invaginated appearance and space-occupying lesion. |
Intussusception. | Terminal ileum. |
| (53) | 32 months/male | Lower GI contrast study and CT scan: suggestive of intussusception. U/S not helpful. |
Intussusception. | Mid transverse, descending and sigmoid colon. |
| (54) | 35 years/male | CT scan: showed a well-demarcated and homogenous solitary mass in the descending colon. On Contrast enhanced view: the mass had enhanced homogenously in delayed phase. |
Inflammatory mass. | Descending colon. |
| (55) | 30 years/male | Upper abdominal U/S: showed a cystic partially solid structure possibly originating from the right kidney. MRI: showed well demarcated solitary mass in upper abdomen located against the liver and right kidney. Contrasted enhanced MRI with gadolinium: administration showed a stained capsule of the mass. |
Malignant mass. | Below right lobe of the liver. |
| (56) | 30 years/female | F-FDG PET/CT scan with IV contrast: showed intussusception in the abdomen involving the descending colon. | Pedunculated polyp. | Left colon. |
| (57) | 56 years/male | ND | ND. | Ascending colon. |
