Inflammatory pseudotumor of fallopian tube is an uncommon benign lesion. We report a case of an inflammatory pseudotumor of left fallopian tube in a 29 year-old woman. She presented with pain in lower abdomen, urinary frequency and dysuria. Contrast enhanced computerized tomography revealed a large necrotic mass in left adnexa abutting superior wall of urinary bladder and lower anterior wall of uterus. Left ovary was seen adherent to the posterior part of the mass. Serum CA-125 was within normal
limit. The patient underwent tru-cut biopsy and subsequent excision of left adnexal mass. Histopathology revealed an inflammatory pseudotumor. We reviewed the clinical, imaging and pathological features of the inflammatory pseudotumor of fallopian tube and discussed its differential diagnosis.

Keywords: Inflammatory, Pseudotumour, Fallopian Tube, Diagnosis, and Immunohistochemistry.
