G Pineda Cuevas, and A Alvarez Silván, and J García Cantón, and J Fernández Delgado, and D López Guerrero

A case of sporadic Burkitt lymphoma, localized in the face, in a four year old male, is presented. The marked involvement of the hemolymphatic system and the prognostic value of the metastatic cellular type that may be found in bone marrow is pointed out. Due to the lack of other concluding etiopathogenic criteria, the diagnosis can be established in view of the pathologic and histochemical characteristics of the tumor.

D002051 Burkitt Lymphoma A form of undifferentiated malignant LYMPHOMA usually found in central Africa, but also reported in other parts of the world. It is commonly manifested as a large osteolytic lesion in the jaw or as an abdominal mass. B-cell antigens are expressed on the immature cells that make up the tumor in virtually all cases of Burkitt lymphoma. The Epstein-Barr virus (HERPESVIRUS 4, HUMAN) has been isolated from Burkitt lymphoma cases in Africa and it is implicated as the causative agent in these cases; however, most non-African cases are EBV-negative.
