Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumour (IMT) or ‘pseudotumour’ of the kidney is a uncommon benign tumour, common in young adults with unknown etiology. Clinical feature and radiological investigations are usually inconclusive. Often, biopsy is inconclusive required a management similar to that of Renal Cell Cancer (RCC). Diagnosis is based on immunohistochemistry. We are reporting a case of IMT in a 32-year-old female patient who presented with left flank pain and haematuria which on evaluation was suggestive of left renal cell carcinoma. IMT was confermed by Surgery, histopathological examination and Immunohistochemistry.
