Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is a rare soft tissue tumor. It can be discovered in many organs but is most commonly found in the lung.1,2 Gold standard of diagnosis is tissue biopsy. Computed tomography (CT) and Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) has a role in diagnosis but sensitivity and specificity is not very high.3,4 Presentation may vary widely from single pulmonary nodule, endobronchial lesion, bilateral lung nodule or distant metastasis.2-11 Mainstay of treatment is complete resection which has a better survival rate and lower recurrence rate. Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) resection is one of the safest and most effective ways to treat the patient.9,11 In cases of endobronchial lesion, palliative endobronchial resection is utilized to restore patient’s airway.6,10
