Abstract

Burkitt’s lymphoma is a type of B-cell lymphoma that grows rapidly and it usually localizes extranodally. Sometimes it occurs as leukemia-like infiltration. Lymph node involvement is rare. It has very high mitotic index. Starry sky view occurs as a result of phagocytosis of overproduced apoptotic cells by macrophages. Although it is a very fast growing tumor, cure can be achieved with intensive therapy. A twenty-six-year-old female patient presented to our clinic with a complaint of swelling in the neck. Fine needle aspiration biopsy was performed. Pre-diagnosis of the mass was atypical Burkitt's lymphoma. We agreed to perform excisional biopsy. In this paper we are presenting a rare case of ‘Burkitt's lymphoma-like atypical diffuse lymphoid nodular- infiltration’, finally diagnosed as a result of advanced hemato-pathologic analysis. Despite no oncological treatment, no recurrence occured in 1 year period of follow up.

Özet

Burkitt lenfoma (BL) hızlı çoğalan ve sıklıkla ekstranodal lokalizasyonda ortaya çıkan B hücreli bir lenfoma türüdür. Bazen lösemi benzeri infiltrasyon yaparak ortaya çıkar. Lenf nodu tutulumu seyrektir. Oldukça yüksek mitotik indekse sahiptir. Apopitotik hücrelerin fazla olması ve makrofajlar tarafından fagositozu sonucu yıldızlı gökyüzü manzarası oluşur. Çok hızlı büyüyen tümör olmasına rağmen yoğun tedavi ile tam kür sağlanabilmektedir. Yirmi altı yaşında kadın hasta boyunda şişlik şikayeti ile kliniğimize başvurdu. Hastaya ince iğne aspirasyon biyopsisi yapıldı. Kitle ‘Atipik Burkitt Lenfoma’ ön tanısı aldı. Kitleye eksizyonel biyopsi yapılması kararlaştırıldı. Bu yazıda ileri düzey hematopatolojik inceleme sonucunda “Burkitt lenfoma benzeri nodüler-diffüz karakterde atipik lenfoid infiltrasyon” tanısı alan nadir görülen bir olguyu sunuyoruz. Onkolojik tedavi almamasına rağmen hastanın 1 yıllık takiplerinde nüks görülmedi.
