Check out the Apache URL Rewriting Guide:

    http://httpd.apache.org/docs/misc/rewriteguide.html

as well as the RewriteRule configuration directive:

    http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_rewrite.html#RewriteRule

Your config would probably look something like

  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteRule ^itemid/(.*)	index.php?itemid=$1	[L]

although you can get much fancier.
