Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is an aggressive non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma. The disease is associated with Epstein Barr virus (EBV), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and chromosomal translocations that cause the overexpression of oncogene C-MYC.[1] The World Health Organization (WHO) classifies BL into three clinical groups: endemic, sporadic and immunodeficiency-related. The endemic form is linked to malaria and EBV. The immunodeficiency-related variant is associated with HIV and to a lesser extent, organ transplantation. With intense chemotherapy treatment disease prognosis is excellent in children but poor in adults.

7. Have We Reached the Limits of Chemotherapy for Burkitt Lymphoma
25 feb 2023 · Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is a fascinating disease from which many groundbreaking medical and oncologic lessons have been learned.
Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is a fascinating disease from which many groundbreaking medical and oncologic lessons have been learned. Since the Irish surgeon Denis P. Burkitt, MD, FRCS, FRS, first described rapidly enlarging jaw and facial tumors in Ugandan children in 1958,1 the study of BL has led to numerous seminal discoveries, including the recognition of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) as a tumor-initiating virus2,3 and MYC as a bona fide oncogene.4 Early clinical observations noted that BL was predominantly confined to geographic regions along equatorial Africa that were holoendemic for Plasmodium falciparum, which led to our current understanding of its relationship with malaria.5,6 Most importantly, the treatment of BL has underscored the profound curative potential of cytotoxic chemotherapy and transformed a uniformly fatal condition into a highly curable condition, even with widespread disease.

10. Noud (3) has Burkitt lymphoma - Prinses Máxima Centrum
What began in September 2023 with vague complaints resembling a flu, concluded ten days later with a sprint through the corridors of Máxima Hospital with ...
Ilse: ‘Noud had been lethargic and not himself for several days. It's common for a three-year-old to be like that sometimes, but this time I couldn't put my finger on it. I waited and on Monday, he went to daycare as usual. Nothing seemed wrong there, but that evening I noticed his eyes were slightly cross-eyed. The next day, he almost cycled into a wall, as if he couldn't judge distances correctly. In the car, Noud suddenly started vomiting. That's when alarm bells started ringing for me. Deterioration The initial visit to the family doctor didn't yield much. It was probably just the flu. But with the flu, you expect improvement; Noud was getting worse. He would randomly fall asleep, refuse to do anything, cry a lot, complain about headaches... His vision got worse; now he was tripping over his own toys. The doctor still wasn't concerned. Meanwhile, I was standing there with tears in my eyes because I felt something was wrong. Over the weekend, Noud's condition worsened. My husband Jeroen and I decided to call the after-hours doctor. We were allowed to come in. The doctor there consulted with a pediatrician in Zwolle, and even they had a bad feeling about it. We were immediately referred to the hospital. I'll never forget the moment we sat in the waiting room, and the doctors came to us: 'We'll be honest; we suspect a tumor in the nasal cavity. Noud needs a CT scan.' Silence. At such a moment, there are no words to describe your feelings. Rus...
