Sumario:Intraosseous hibernoma is an uncommon brown fat tumor that with about 2-dozen case reports described in the literature. Hibernomas are more commonly found in soft tissues of the thigh, shoulder, and back. However, more cases of intraosseous hibernomas are coming to light as a result of work-up due to pain or as an incidental lesion finding. Herein, we present a case of a thoracic intraosseous hibernoma suspicious for an isolated ovarian cancer metastasis, successfully treated with radiofrequency ablation and kyphoplasty.
