Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) occurring in the pancreas was rare and few clinical cases had been reported. The specificity of clinical presentation of IMT was lacked and its CT imaging manifestations were diverse. The enhanced CT images of a rare patient with IMT of the pancreas with liver metastases were presented to the readers, and the pathophysiological mechanisms associated with the CT imaging manifestations were briefly described, so as to enhance the readers’ understanding and knowledge of the CT imaging manifestations and raise the diagnostic awareness of the disease.
