Endemic Burkitt's lymphoma (BL) remains the most prevalent pediatric cancer in sub-Saharan Africa even though it was the first human cancer with a viral etiology described over 50 years ago. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) was discovered in a BL tumor in 1964 and has since been implicated in other malignancies.

The American Journal of Nursing, 1979
cancer is generally untreatable and inevitably fatal is unfounded. Today, many children are surviving longer and returning to their homes. Although the best treatment has yet to be achieved, promising therapy has been established for many cancers. One of these is Burkitt's lymphoma. This lymphoma is a malignant neoplasm of the hematopoietic system that

Furthermore, treatment of BL/BLL requires comprehensive supportive care to avoid disease-related complications such as acute renal failure secondary to tumor lysis syndrome. Improvements

Clinical Radiology, 1973
The author reviews the recognition of Burkitt's tumour as a clinical and radiological entity and draws attention to the epidemiological studies suggesting the tumour may be virus-induced. The current staging and the role of diagnostic radiology in assessing staging are discussed. The radiological appearance in various sites is described.

The imaging of Burkitt's and Burkitt-like lymphoma
Clinical Radiology, 1998We describe the radiological findings at presentation and follow up in 24 adult patients with Burkitt's and Burkitt-like lymphoma, age range 17-67 years. This is an older age group than previously described in North American series, but the clinical and imaging characteristics appear similar.

Burkitt's lymphoma and malaria
Transactions of the Royal Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 1972Abstract An analysis of malarial parasitaemia, splenomegaly, antimalarial antibodies, immunoglobulin levels, and reticuloendothelial phagocytic function was undertaken in patients with Burkitt's lymphoma in Uganda. The results reveal no difference between the Burkitt patients and controls, with the exception of lower IgM levels among the lymphoma ...
