This case exemplifies the heterogeneous behavior of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors (IMTs) and the current role of targeted therapy in the therapeutic armamentarium of neoplastic processes.As evidenced by the different mutations found in IMTs, it is of great importance to perform next-generation sequencing in uncommon neoplasms.These studies can find different potential targets and therapeutic options for patients devoid of standard effective therapies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
