Abstract
This is the first documented case of an intramandibular IMT. Due to the rarity of these lesions, their clinical sequelae and prognosis are undetermined. As a result of specific immunohistochemical phenotyping and clinical behavior of this lesion, we favored a diagnosis of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor. Wide excision with a long-term clinical follow-up is required.
