Abstract

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors (IMT) of the urachus is a rare neoplastic condition characterized by proliferation of spindle cell, likely derived from myofibroblasts or fibroblasts, with acute and chronic inflammatory infiltrate. Urachal IMT present with abdominal/pelvic pain and urinary symptoms. These often manifest as abdominal mass involving adjacent structures. We describe a case of young female with urachal IMT that was excised with a wide margin to ensure complete removal of all adjacent affected tissue using robotic-assisted laparoscopic approach. Immunohistochemical evidence of ALK and ALK gene rearrangement were confirmed in this tumor which are diagnostic of IMT.
