ABSTRACT
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is an extremely rare neoplastic lesion with a predilection for aggressive local and recurrent behavior. The tumor tends to occur in the lungs of children and young adults, and although it can develop in older patients and other organs, this is extremely rare. Symptoms are nonspecific and depend on the location and size of the tumor. The gastrointestinal tract is rarely this mass's primary site of origin, and the cecum is an even rarer location. We present the case of an otherwise healthy 55-year-old female who presented with an acute abdomen and a mass in her abdomen; after successful surgery, she fully recovered. Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor causing acute abdomen was the final diagnosis.
