Abstract:
Burkitt lymphoma is a highly aggressive B-cell lymphoma and the fastest proliferating human malignant tumor.If the disease is found in the early stage,the patient could have a high possibility to be cured successfully,whereas the prognosis is poor in the late stage.Burkitt lymphoma can occur in children and adults,and it is categorized as local(Africa),sporadic,and immunodeficiency associated type.Sporadic Burkitt lymphoma mainly affects children and ado-lescents,and the most common initial sites are abdominal organs and lymph nodes.Sporadic Burkitt lymphoma manifested by initial oral and maxillofacial lesions is rela-tively rare.Here,a case of pediatric sporadic Burkitt lym-phoma,with oral and maxillofacial lesions as the first symptoms,was reported.The patient was treated in the Department of Periodontology,Shandong University School and Hospital of Stomatology.After timely checkup was pro-vided,the patient was transferred to another hospital and had good results.In this article,an incidence of Burkitt lympho-ma,with oral and maxillofacial lesions as the first symptom,was reviewed to provide reference for oral clinicians to achieve early diagnosis and treatment of patients with Burkitt lymphoma with oral diseases and improve the success rate of treatment.
