Inflammatory pseudotumour is an uncommon benign lesion that presents in children and young adults. The rarity of these lesions, particularly at extrapulmonary sites, has resulted in poor documentation of its radiological manifestations. The casenotes, radiology and histology of five patients with inflammatory pseudotumour were reviewed. Two lesions were intra-abdominal, one oesophageal, one intrapulmonary and one lower limb. CT demonstrated inflammatory pseudotumours as well circumscribed masses of soft tissue density producing displacement of surrounding structures rather than local invasion. Sonography depicted these lesions as well defined masses with homogeneous echo patterns. Surgical removal resulted in dramatic symptomatic improvement.

A 53-year-old man with tracheobronchomalacia had two stents placed in his airways to maintain patency. He ingested one of the tracheal stents that was inadvertently dislodged during a brief coughing episode. The swallowed stent was recovered without complications.
