Abstract

Inflammatory pseudotumors are benign soft tissue tumors that in rare cases can also manifest in multiple organs. We report here on the radiologic findings of a case of inflammatory pseudotomor mimicking malignant lymphoma involving the liver, pancreas, common bile duct, kidney, renal pelvis and lymph nodes of the abdomen and mediastinum, as well as the bronchus in an adult.

염증거짓종양은 특별한 원인 없이 발생하는 양성 연조직 종양으로 매우 드물게 다양한 장기를 침범할 수 있다. 저자들은 성인에서 간, 췌장, 담관, 신장 및 신우, 복강 및 종격동 내 림프절, 기관지를 동시에 침범하여 악성 림프종으로 오인하였으나, 조직검사와 함께 임상적으로 염증거짓종양으로 진단된 1예의 영상 소견을 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고한다.
