Abstract EN
Inflammatory pseudotumor of the liver (IPTL) is a rare condition, but an important differential diagnosis of hepatic space-occupying lesions.
It may regress spontaneously and mimic other liver tumors.
Complications are usually intrahepatic.
Herein, we present a case of IPTL which developed pleural empyema and lung necrosis as an uncommon complication.
