Abstrakt: |
Burkitt's tumor is a undifferentiated lymphoma of lymphocytes B with a characteristic histologic pattern often called as "starry sky". It is classified in two groups: endemic Burkitt's lymphoma (African form), and non-endemic Burkitt's lymphoma (American form). The extranodal involvement of the head and neck in the American type is uncommon, so the diagnosis can be delayed. The authors present in this paper a case of American Burkitt's lymphoma in a patient with gingival hyperplasia, and compare the epidemiological, clinical, radiographic, therapeutic and prognostic characteristics of the endemic and non-endemic forms of Burkitt's lymphoma. |
