Low-grade myofibroblastic sarcoma is an uncommon malignancy that can be difficult to identify and for which there is no unified treatment protocol. We report herein a case of an 81-year-old male who presented with a giant irregular breast mass and was diagnosed with low-grade myofibroblastic sarcoma. In this study we summarise the clinicopathological features of 13 reported cases of myofibroblastic sarcoma arising in the breast, present the diagnostic process and treatment procedure of our case, and discuss the differential diagnosis from other similar diseases, to provide constructive information and promote deep understanding of myofibroblastic sarcoma in the future.

Epithelioid inflammatory myofibroblastic sarcoma (EIMS) is a distinct subtype of inflammatory myofibroblastoma tumor (IMT) that is recognized as a rare malignant tumor characterized by anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) positivity, significant aggressiveness, treatment challenges, and a poor prognosis. We report on the case of an 8-year-old boy presenting with abdominal pain and vomiting. Computed tomography (CT) of the abdomen revealed a large tumor, and the pathology results following a biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of EIMS.
