Abstract
In this article, we present a clinical case of a 14 year old teen who presented a supracavicular growing mass and whose diagnosis made by histologic examination after performing excision, proves to be a hibernoma. Given the infrequency with wich these types of benign tumors of the soft tissues occur, we present a description, based on a literature review of such pathology.
