“…Inflammatory pseudotumors of the lung are rare and were first described in the lung in 1939 [ 1 ]. They are not limited to the lung and can grow in any organ such as the brain, liver, spleen, lymph nodes, salivary glands, breast, soft tissues and skin [ 8 ].…”

“…Microscopically, the lesions consist of variable mixtures of fibroblasts and granulation tissue, fibrous tissue, and inflammatory cells including lymphocytes, histiocytes, giant cells, macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils, and typically large numbers of plasma cells [ 1 , 3 , 4 ]. The differential diagnosis can be quite wide, specific considerations include solitary metastases from an osteosarcoma or mucinous tumor, intra-thoracic soft tissue sarcoma and pulmonary hamartoma [ 14 , 16 ].…”

“…Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a rare benign tumor, accounting for 0.7% of all lung tumors [ 1 , 2 ]. First described by Brunn in 1939, it is an inflammatory, reactive, and nonneoplastic process characterized by unregulated growth of inflammatory cells [ 3 ].…”

Inflammatory pseudotumours of the lungs have rarely been reported. These have been described as a benign entity of unknown origin and are often locally invasive requiring extensive pulmonary resection. Complete resection is the key to prevent recurrence and the prognosis is excellent following surgery. We describe a patient with inflammatory pseudotumour of the lung. He was a middle aged man who presented with haemotysis and the chest X-ray and computerized tomography were indicative of a nonbenign lesion in the right upper lobe. Excision biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of inflammatory myofibroblastic pseudotumour of the lung. This is a rare inflammatory nonneoplastic condition commonly affecting children and young adults.

Lung cancer recurrence and metastasis from other organs is now frequently observed. 1 For early stages, surgery remains the first choice of treatment but recent studies reported that 2-5% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients later develop metastasis or tumor recurrence. 2,3 Late stage patients are not the best candidates for curative surgery due to extent of the disease, comorbidities and poor cardio-respiratory function.PIMT is a rare benign tumor that constitutes 0.7% of all lung lesions. [4][5][6][7][8][9] Diagnosis through biopsy and radiologic exam is difficult due to its varying cell characteristic and images. Management of this rare disease is dependent on the type of tumor, extent of disease and general health status of the patient. 10 For treatment purposes and to prevent recurrences, complete resection is necessary. However, not all are valid candidates undergo surgery. 11There are other available treatment options both for early and late stages of lung cancer and inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) that are minimally invasive. These include chemotherapy, target therapy, radio therapy and thermal ablation which are proven safe and effective management options. 1,[12][13][14][15] MWA therapy is a technology that is image-guided and uses high frequency microwave energy waves that produce tissue-heating effects to destruct solid tumors. It is less invasive, proven effective, preserves normal lung parenchyma and can enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy and/or external beam radiation. 16 The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of MWA as an alternative treatment of lung tumors in different case scenarios. Case Reports Case # 1In October 2016, a 69-year-old female patient came for a routine check-up. She was asymptomatic, non-smoker and had no family history of tuberculosis or lung cancer. Her chest x-ray showed an ill-defined nodule at left upper lung, measuring about 4.0x4.2 cm, with diffuse nodular opacity in both lungs. Computed tomography (CT) of chest revealed multiple small nodules measuring 4 mm, 5 mm, and 6 mm at the right AbstractLung tumors are effectively managed through surgery. But for inoperable lung cancers such as in advanced stages, poor respiratory function and other diseases like pulmonary inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (PIMT), minimal invasive techniques like percutaneous microwave ablation (MWA) therapy is the preferred treatment option. MWA is a curative alternative approach used to destroy malignant tumor cells with minimal normal tissue damage. This instrument uses high frequency microwave energy waves that produce tissue-heating effects to destruct solid tumors. The purpose of this case report is to illustrate how MWA effectively managed four various cases of lung cancer.
