Burkitt Lymphoma: A Review
Burkitt Lymphoma (BL) is a high grade Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma (NHL) that is characterized histopathologically by a mass of diffuse small non-cleaved B cell lymphocytes [1,2]. It is a highly aggressive lymphoma that frequently presents in extranodal sites with a very high proliferation rate. It is the fastest growing tumour, characterized by explosive growth with a doubling time of 24 hours. BL is...
متن کاملRole of Stem Cell Transplantation in the Treatment of Burkitt Lymphoma; A Systematic Review
Background: Burkitt lymphoma is a common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in children. It has a rapid and aggressive clinical course with frequent involvement of bone marrow and central nervous system. Systemic chemotherapy is the mainstay of the treatment for this malignancy in children. In this systematic review, we discuss autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSC...
متن کاملSerum monoclonal immunoglobulin bands in undifferentiated lymphomas of Burkitt and non-Burkitt types.
Using an improved electroimmunofixation technique that combines the sensitivity of high resolution agarose gel electrophoresis with the specificity of immunoprecipitation, we have demonstrated monoclonal immunoglobulin bands in the serum of patients with undifferentiated lymphomas of Burkitt and non-Burkitt types. Monoclonal bands were detected in the serum of 12 of 21 patients with extensive t...
متن کاملThe Burkitt-like lymphomas: a Southwest Oncology Group study delineating phenotypic, genotypic, and clinical features.
The Revised European-American Lymphoma classification gives Burkitt-like lymphoma (BLL) provisional status, leaving unresolved the differential diagnosis with Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). This study compared the biologic features of adult BLL and DLBCL. The phenotypic distinction between BLL and DLBCL was determined by immunohistochemical staining of frozen t...
متن کاملBurkitt lymphoma is immunophenotypically different from Burkitt-like lymphoma in young persons.
INTRODUCTION Burkitt-like lymphoma (BLL) is a provisional category of B-cell lymphoma which is morphologically intermediate between Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). The clinical significance of this morphology is controversial. PATIENTS AND METHODS We examined 41 cases of pediatric B-cell lymphoma by immunohistochemistry for proteins associated with proto-oncogenes c-my...
