Popis: The clinical features of 74 patients with Burkitt's lymphoma diagnosed at the Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem, Israel, are described. The prompt diagnosis of a child with high grade malignant jaw involvement of non-Hodgkin's Burkitt's lymphoma is reported. The use of the open biopsy with special emphasis on the incisional biopsy is discussed in light of the incidental exfoliation of the two primary molar teeth and one permanent successor in this case.
