Popis: A child presenting with the findings of inflammatory disease was found to have a pseudotumor of the retroperitoneum. Following surgical removal, all signs of the systemic inflammatory process resolved. These rare, benign tumors of unknown etiology must not only be differentiated from locally invasive malignant lesions, but may present with findings suggesting a chronic inflammatory disorder.
