Abstract

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE

Burkitt's lymphoma is one of the fastest growing human cancers and it needs a rapid diagnosis.

CASE PRESENTATION

A young woman presented to our institution with acute abdominal pain, tenderness and constipation. Ultrasound reported a right ovarian mass; at laparoscopy, we discovered ascites, peritoneal carcinomatosis and a voluminous pelvic mass.

CLINICAL DISCUSSION

Diagnosis was confirmed as non-Hodgkin sporadic Burkitt's lymphoma: the careful workup was the key to initiate multiagent chemotherapy.

CONCLUSION

Primary ovarian Burkitt's lymphoma, in a young woman in a non-endemic zone, is a rarity that represents a strong diagnostic challenge, but rapid identification can lead the patient to appropriate therapies and improvement of prognosis.
