Hibernoma – two patients with a rare lipoid soft-tissue tumour
BACKGROUND Hibernomas are rare benign soft-tissue tumours arising from brown fat tissue. Although imaging characteristics are not specific certain imaging features, common locations and patient demographics may suggest hibernoma as a differential diagnosis. CASE PRESENTATION We report on two 48-year-old male patients with hibernoma. The tumour presented with local swelling of the inguinal reg...
متن کاملMyxoid liposarcoma: a rare soft-tissue tumor with a misleading benign appearance
BACKGROUND Lipoma is by far the most common of all benign soft-tissue tumors which far outnumber malignant tumors. Soft-tissue sarcomas are malignant tumors and are usually named for the type of tissue in which they begin. Liposarcoma (LPS), which arises in the fatty tissue, is rather an uncommon soft-tissue tumor. Multiple histologic subtypes of liposarcoma are recognized, including myxoid lip...
متن کاملHibernoma--a rare brown fat tumour.

The hibernoma was first described by Merkelin 1906, who called it Pseudolipoma. The name hibernoma is derived from its histological similarity to the brown fat of hibernating animals. They have been found in the neck, back, popliteal space, thighs, axilla, ab...
متن کاملDeep-seated huge hibernoma of soft tissue: a rare differential diagnosis of atypical lipomatous tumor/well differentiated liposarcoma.
BACKGROUND Hibernoma is a rare benign fat-forming soft tissue tumor that differentiates similar to brown fat, hence an origin from remnants of fetal brown adipose tissue has been proposed. Mainly young adults are affected, usually without significant clinical symptoms. MATERIAL AND METHODS We report on four patients with hibernomas, who were treated at our hospital during the last 10 years. T...

History and adequate examination is the cornerstone in diagnosing scrotal pathology. Ultrasonography is the principle radiologic study used to evaluate scrotal masses. This can locate the site of a mass, and different...
