title: [Hibernoma of the axilla].
abstract: Hibernomas are benign tumors derived from brown fat that most often present as painless, slowly enlarging masses in the interscapular region, the neck, the inguinal region and the mediastinum. We report one case of hibernoma of the axillary region and we review the clinical presentation, diagnostic and therapeutic of this kind of soft tissue neoplasm.
