A case study of inflammatory pseudotumour of the liver (IPL) is related. The patient presented with symptoms, biochemistry and ultrasonic findings highly indicative of a malignant disease. However, a core needle biopsy revealed inflammatory pseudotumour of the liver, an infrequent diagnosis with only about 200 cases to be found in the literature. This case illustrates the importance of core biopsy from focal processes, since IPL is a benign condition with a strong tendency to spontaneous regression.

Renal pseudotumors, which mimic tumors on imaging, pose diagnostic challenges that can lead to unnecessary interventions. Sensing ultrasound localization microscopy (sULM) is an advanced imaging technique that uses ultrasound imaging and microbubbles as sensors to visualize kidney functional units. This study aims to investigate whether sULM could differentiate between renal pseudotumors and tumors based on the presence of glomeruli.

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a rare tumor type with a prognosis ranging from benign to locally aggressive. Initially described as a reactive lesion most commonly of the lungs, cases of IMT have now been reported in rare instances in the head and neck, which may be more aggressive than other tumor locations. IMT frequently afflicts children and adolescents, but pediatric cases of IMT in the head and neck region are rare.
