Hibernomas are rare, benign neoplasms characterized by the presence of brown adipose tissue. Although these tumors may arise in any region of brown fat, they predominantly occur in the thigh, shoulder, back, and neck. Hibernomas are rarely found in mammary tissue, with a higher prevalence in females than males.

Intramuscular lipomas (IMLs) are rare benign tumors that arise when lipomas infiltrate muscle tissue. These tumors are most commonly found in the large muscles of the limbs and trunk, particularly in the thigh, shoulder, and upper arm. IMLs often present as painless masses but can cause pain, muscle dysfunction, and neurological deficits as they grow and invade surrounding structures.

The thigh is the preferred location for hibernomas, but the tumor can appear in other areas. The upper limb is a rare localization and there is only 1 case of hibernoma on the hand already reported in the English literature.

Hibernomas are rare brown fat tumors that garnered attention in the literature with the increasing use of [F] Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography ([F] FDG PET/CT) for the staging workup and follow-up of solid malignancies. Despite being benign tumors, they exhibit high metabolic activity due to their thermogenic nature, leading to significant radiotracer uptake on functional imaging. This can pose a challenge in differentiating them from the malignant lesions, especially the fat-containing malignancies such as liposarcoma.
