Core Tip	This article reports two rare cases involving the spontaneous regression of an unresectable intra-abdominal inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) and summarizes the clinical characteristics of all published cases. The clinical characteristics of IMT are not clear and the treatment is controversial. By analyzing published papers, we discovered some common features of the disease and potential reasons for this unusual phenomenon. Our findings may be useful for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of IMT.
