Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is a rare intermediate-grade tumor. We herein report the case of an 81-year-old man with rectal ulceration and abnormal retroperitoneal soft tissue with a high serum level of IgG4. The administration of prednisolone reduced the retroperitoneal lesion; however, the rectal ulceration expanded. Surgical resection was performed. A histopathological examination revealed proliferating spindle cells accompanied by inflammatory cells and plasma cells. Liver metastasis emerged two months after surgical resection, and the histology of the proliferating spindle cells sampled by a fine-needle biopsy was similar to that of the rectal tissue. The patient ultimately died of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor.
