Scand J Urol Nephrol. 1998 Apr;32(2):153-5. doi: 10.1080/003655998750014594.

Abstract

A 23-year-old man was admitted with a 6-month history of a slow-growing mass in the left side of the scrotum. Echography revealed a mixed-density mass that was mainly fatty. The histopathological examination was considered typical of a hibernoma. To our knowledge this is the second case reported.
