To the best of our knowledge, this is the first gastric IMT report to show double invasion of the spleen and the diaphragm, and double amplification of CDK4 and MDM2 in IMT are also reported for the first time.
Subsequently, a biopsy demonstrated a low-grade spindle cell neoplasm compatible with inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour with immunostain positive for smooth muscle actin and desmin and negative for CD21, CD117, DOG-1, TKE-1, mdm2, CD34 and ALK.
We compared the immunohistochemical expression of calponin, h-caldesmon, ALK, and p53 gene mutation and MDM2 gene amplification with clinicopathological findings in 15 cases of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour.
