摘要：

Objective: We present the first reported case in the English language literature of an inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour of the right tonsil in a young, pregnant woman. and we report a management strategy for this enigmatic entity Case report: A 28-year-old. pregnant woman presented with a 10-day history of odynophagia despite a course of antibiotics Examination revealed a grade II. erythematous tight tonsil with ulceration on the upper pole. A biopsy was arranged, and initial evaluation was suggestive of spindle cell carcinoma However. this diagnosis was reviewed after immunohistochemical staining confirmed an inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour Subsequent complete excision was undertaken using CO, laser. Conclusion Clinically: inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour of the tonsil is known to be locally aggressive and can present in a manner not dissimilar to a high glade carcinoma of the tonsil As a result, the recommended treatment is complete local excision with careful follow up.
