Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor of the prostate.

Introduction: Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors are borderline malignant soft tissue tumors primarily affecting the lungs and pelvic organs. This report presents a rare case of an inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor originating from the prostate gland in a young male.

Case Presentation: A 20-year-old man developed gross hematuria and dysuria, revealing a prostatic mass. Pathological examination of a biopsy displayed spindle-shaped myofibroblast proliferation and an infiltrate of inflammatory cells, leading to a diagnosis of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor. Following fertility preservation measures, the patient underwent a robot-assisted laparoscopic total prostatectomy with bilateral nerve sparing, resulting in a postoperative diagnosis of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor. No recurrence was observed in subsequent imaging, and urinary continence was maintained.

Conclusion: Surgical resection appears effective in managing inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors of the prostate. This case underscores the importance of complete tumor resection due to the significant recurrence risk associated with inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors. Radical total prostatectomy emerges as a potential treatment strategy for prostate originating inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors.
