Hibernoma is a borderline tumor, benign with aggressive behavior, of soft tissues, rare in frequency, which originates from residual brown adipocytes, mainly affecting women between 10 and 20 years of age. Clinically it presents as a slow-growing, mobile, firm and painless tumor, more frequent on the thighs. In imaging studies, it can be difficult to make a differential diagnosis due to its similarity to malignant neoplasms. The ideal treatment is surgical resection with wide margins to avoid any type of local recurrence. The case of a typical hibernoma, management and surgical treatment performed is presented.

Palabras clave : Hibernoma; adipocytes; soft tissue.
