Abstrakt:	Objective: Genitourinary tract involvement arising from non-Hodgkin lymphoma occurs in 10% of patients; prostatic infiltration is uncommon and accounts for less than 0.1%. The uncommon clinical onset of this infrequent condition prompted us to report on the present case. Methods/results: A 41-year-old male patient with lower urinary tract outflow obstruction arising from prostatic enlargement secondary to non-Hodgkin lymphoma (Burkitt's lymphoma) is described. Treatment with chemotherapy achieved good results. The clinical features, diagnostic and therapeutic aspects are discussed and the literature briefly reviewed. Conclusion: The present case emphasizes the need to include non-Hodgkin lymphoma in the differential diagnosis of lower urinary tract outflow obstructive symptoms in young men with prostatic enlargement.
