Abstract
|
|
|
Burkitt's lymphoma was first described as "round cell sarcoma" in the jaw bone by
Denis Burkitt in 1958.
Although endemic in tropical Africa, it occurs in many other contraries. Differences
between African and non-African types include presenting sites of tumors, age at onset,
frequency of late relapse after chemotherapy and association of Ebstein-Barr virus, but
histologic features are identical.
We report a case of Burkitt's lymphoma in tonsil where is relatively rare location with
brief review of literatures.
