Primary Burkitts's lymphoma of endometrium and bilateral ovaries in a 6-year-old female: Report of a rare entity and review of the published work

Abstract

We report a case of a 6-year-old girl with primary Burkitts's lymphoma (BL) of endometrium and bilateral ovaries of 1-month duration. To the best of our knowledge, few cases of childhood primary BL of bilateral ovaries have been reported worldwide. However, extensive search of the published work did not reveal any case of primary BL of endometrium and both ovaries. Although rare, BL is a potentially curable malignancy with good prognosis. © 2013 The Authors. Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Research © 2013 Japan Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology.
