“…It presents as a painless mass, with slow growth, sitting at various sites, the most frequent of which according to the largest series of studies by Furlong and his collaborators are: the thigh then the shoulder, followed by the back, the neck, thorax, upper limb and other sites [1]. Two hypotheses are put forward to explain the development of this tumour: the ectopic growth of brown fatty lobules and the migration fromb rown adipose tissue [6]. This tumor occurs between the ages of 30 and 40 with a slight female predominance.…”

IntroductionHibernoma is a rare tumor that develops from fat cells. It is a benign tumor that grows slowly and rarely gives rise to particularly painful symptoms. The main differential diagnosis is liposarcoma. We report a case of a hibernoma with unusual location (retrorectal with gluteal development). Observation this is a 37-year-old woman with no significant history who presented with swelling of the left buttock that had been evolving for 5 years. The clinical examination revealed a swelling 20cm in large diameter that bulges at the level of the left buttock. This formation was painless, soft in consistency and the skin over it is of normal color and appearance. Digital rectal examination perceived a formation of soft consistency. This patient had no medical or surgical history. Soft in consistency and the skin over it is of normal color and appearance. Digital rectal examination perceived a formation of soft consistency. This patient had no medical or surgical history. A complete surgical resection was with simple post operative course. The histological study revealed a hibernoma. The patient is alive without recurrence at 8 months postoperatively.

Hibernomas are uncommon benign soft tissue tumours mimicking brown fat. They are mostly seen in the fourth and fifth decades of life. Only few cases in the cervical area have been reported. Because of its rarity in pediatrics and diffcult diagnosis, we report a tow year-old patient with a cervical tumor. Ultrasound and computed tomography exams showed an infiltrative, with hypervascular and lipomatous features. After tumor excision, histopathological exam confirmed the diagnosis of hibernoma or brown fat tumor. This presentation describes the characteristics of this type of tumor, rare in children.
