The pancreas represents a very rare localization of this tumor. Surgery is the standard treatment, but for inoperable tumors; there is no consensus. We report a case of an inextirpable pancreatic IMT in a 46-years-old woman and we also carry out a literature review. http://pubs.sciepub.com/js/8/2/1/js-8-2-1.pdf inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor pancreas ALK
