Abstract:
Hibernoma is a very rare, benign soft fatty tumor that derived from remnants of fetal brown tissue. The following case of hibernoma break out occurred from a patient who had received surgical resection of neurilemmoma. There has never been a case that reported about hibernoma accompanied by neurilemmoma. It is anticipated that this experience would be helpful to other physicians who are interested in this rare type of tumor.
